Importing Users from LDAP

1. On the Menu toolbar, click Administer > Security > LDAP Configuration/Import.
2. Click the Edit icon corresponding to the profile you want to use to import users.
3. Click Fetch to fetch all the users from the LDAP directory.
OneData determines the number of users to return on each screen based on the value of the Number of Rows property set in Preferences. For information about configuring preferences, see webMethods OneData User’s Guide.
Tip:
Use the arrows to navigate through the list of users. The left-most arrow returns to the first page of results.
4. Select the users to import from each page, using the arrows to navigate among the pages of results.
Tip:
Click Clear Values to remove all the users and reset the selections.
5. To assign roles to users, click Roles.
