I created a new Group called "OrgAdmins" and added the group under "Administrators". I added few users into "OrgAdmins" group. now, when I login for the first time, my user is automatically removed from "OrgAdmins" group and I do not have access to perform any admin tasks.

Hi Varunraj,

Did you enable the Directory Service and did the group mapping?

Check it under Security->Directory Services->open the Directory Service you imported if it exists, check if it's enabled and then check the Configuration like Group Mappings.

Hi Anna,

Thanks for the reply. I just checked the AD and I have 2 active directory. one is enables(which is what I use) and another disabled (I disabled it intentionally). On the Configuration section of the enabled AD, I did not do any group mapping. when I just tried to do so, the AD group is disabled and doesnot show any group.

I have configured ThingWorx such that all users in my organization can login to ThingWorx.And then I will grant access by adding them to specific groups. pls suggest if any thing is wrong?

Hi Varunraj,

When your AD server is connectable, try to run GetDomainGroups service under your directory service, and then go back to Configuration tab, you should configure the Group mapping then. Give a correct mapping(especially the one you logged in with ) and try again. If not work also you could try to disable Directory service to see if the issue is gone to check if it's relevant to the Directory service.

Thanks,

Br,

Anna
