Using the Active Directory Plug-In

The
Automation Orchestrator
plug-in for Microsoft Active Directory allows interaction between
Automation Orchestrator
and Microsoft Active Directory. You can use the plug-in to run
Automation Orchestrator
workflows that automate Active Directory processes.
The
Active Directory
plug-in contains a set of standard workflows. You can also create custom workflows that implement the plug-in API to automate tasks in your Active Directory environment.

Configuring the Active Directory Plug-In

To connect to a Microsoft Active Directory instance by using the
Active Directory
plug-in, you must configure the connection parameters for the Microsoft Active Directory instance by running the configuration workflows included in the plug-in.
To access these workflows in the
Automation Orchestrator
Client, navigate to
Library
Workflows
and enter the
active_directory
and
configuration
tags in the workflow search box.
