How do I enable Active Directory groups in
VMware Aria Automation
for projects

If a group is not available on the
Add Groups
page when you are adding users to projects, check the
Identity & Access Management
page and add the group if it is available. If the group is not listed on the
Identity & Access Management
page in
VMware Aria Automation
, the group may not be synchronized in your
instance. You can verify that it has been synchronized and then use this procedure to add the group as shown herein.
If the groups are not synchronized, they are not available when you try to add them to a project. Submit a request to VMware Cloud Services to synchronize your Active Directory groups with your
instance.
If the groups are not synchronized, they are not available when you try to add them to a project. Verify that you synchronized your Active Directory groups with your
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
instance.
To add members of an Active Directory group to a project, you must ensure that the group is synchronized with your
instance and that the group is added to the organization.
