Server Address Format

LDAP: ldap://hostname:389 (standard port 389)

Can include additional connection parameters

LDAP Filter Examples

(uid={0}) - Search by UID attribute (OpenLDAP)
(sAMAccountName={0}) - Search by sAMAccountName (Active Directory)
(cn={0}) - Search by Common Name
(&(objectClass=person)(uid={0})) - Combined filter with object class

Notes

serverAddress, username, password, and baseDn are required.
serverAddress format: ldap://host:port or ldaps://host:port
username is the bind DN (Distinguished Name) for LDAP authentication.
password is the password for the bind DN.
customFilter uses {0} as placeholder for the username being searched.
searchScope defaults to SUBTREE (searches entire subtree).
useSsl: true enables SSL/TLS encryption (use ldaps:// in serverAddress).
certificateId is required if useSsl: true and certificate validation is enabled.
baseDn is the root DN for LDAP searches (e.g., dc=example,dc=com).

Notes and Warnings

LDAP Protocol:
- LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) for directory services
- Standard port: 389 (LDAP), 636 (LDAPS)
- Supports both LDAP and LDAPS (LDAP over SSL/TLS)
Server Address:
- Format: ldap://hostname:port or ldaps://hostname:port
- Use ldaps:// for SSL/TLS encrypted connections
- Standard ports: 389 (LDAP), 636 (LDAPS)
Authentication:
- username is the bind DN (Distinguished Name) for LDAP authentication
- password is the password for the bind DN
- Bind DN format: cn=username,dc=example,dc=com
- Use service account with appropriate permissions
Search Filter:
- customFilter uses {0} as placeholder for username
- Common filters:
  - OpenLDAP: (uid={0})
  - Active Directory: (sAMAccountName={0})
  - Generic: (cn={0})
Search Scope:
- OBJECT - Search only base object
- ONE_LEVEL - Search immediate children
- SUBTREE - Search entire subtree (default, most common)
Base DN:
- baseDn is the root DN for LDAP searches
- Format: dc=example,dc=com or DC=example,DC=com
- Should match your LDAP directory structure
SSL/TLS:
- useSsl: true enables SSL/TLS encryption
- Use ldaps:// in serverAddress when SSL is enabled
- Certificate validation options:
  - NOT_REQUIRED - No validation (not recommended for production)
  - REQUIRED_CN - CN must match hostname
  - REQUIRED_AN_PN - Alternative Name or Principal Name must match
Certificate:
- certificateId is required if certificate validation is enabled
- Upload certificate to Apinizer certificate store first
- certificateName is for reference only
Active Directory:
- Use sAMAccountName filter for Active Directory
- Bind DN format: CN=ServiceAccount,CN=Users,DC=example,DC=com
- Base DN format: DC=example,DC=com
Performance:
- Use appropriate search scope (SUBTREE is most flexible but slower)
- Optimize custom filter for your directory structure
- Consider connection pooling for high-throughput scenarios
Security:
- Use SSL/TLS in production (ldaps://)
- Enable certificate validation
- Use strong passwords for bind DN
- Restrict bind DN permissions
- Consider using service accounts with minimal privileges
Deployment: Connection changes require deployment to take effect. Set deployToWorker: true or deploy manually.
