HI,

I have an application with ldap. Now I have to create a user in both LDAP and ThingWorx.

What I would like to do is create the user in LDAP only, and when user tries to login for the first time it will create the user in Thingworx (without the Password) if the login succeed or else user will not be created.

Is this possible?

I have tried to find login service but not found.

    Hi Tomas Coufal​,

    Enhancement Jira PSPT-2247 (Automatically import users from LDAP on first authentication attempt) is open with R&D for the same.

    I suppose article CS221840 will be helpful meanwhile.

    Thanks,

    Ankit Gupta

    Hi Ankit,

    thanks for that. Is there a way how to track Jira tickets? We would like to (well we need to) know when this is going to be ready.

    More importantly we are relying on LDAPS, well our customer does. In that document it states that LDAPS is currently not yet supported by ThingWorx, but that document was created in DEC 15 and edited in JUN 16, in release notes for TW 7.1.1 is:

    Related JIRA

    •Added the ability to configure a DirectoryService thing with LDAPS or LDAP. The protocolfield has been added to the DirectoryServices LDAP settings (can be configured with ldap orldaps).

    TW-5224

    However we tried it against ActiveDirectory and ApacheDS and neither worked, LDAP worked fine.

    Any info about this? Should I open up a case?

    Thanks

    Tomas
