LDAP Data Sync Settings

In this section, you will find settings for LDAP Sync.

  • Unique Identifier Field: Which field will be used to link the LDAP user and the Rocket.Chat user. You can inform multiple values separated by a comma to try to get the value from the LDAP record.
  • Merge Existing Users: Whether or not to merge existing users.

{% hint style="info" %} Caution! When importing a user from LDAP and a user with the same username already exists the LDAP info and password will be set into the existing user. This will let LDAP users take over password accounts with the same username. {% endhint %}

  • Update User Data on Login: Enable to update user data on login
  • Default Domain: If provided the Default Domain will be used to create a unique email for users where email was not imported from LDAP. The email will be mounted as username@default_domain or unique_id@default_domain.

Avatar

  • Sync User Avatar: Enable to sync the user's avatar
  • User Avatar Field: The field to be used as an avatar for users. Leave empty to use thumbnailPhoto first and jpegPhoto as a fallback.

#{givenName}.#{sn}
