Active Directory

Active Directory uses a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) based authorization. By linking your Active Directory account with Hire2Retire, you can authorize RoboMQ to perform operations to your Active Directory Domain Controller.

Hire2Retire product supports employee operations of onboarding, updating, termination, rehire and leave in Active Directory. Thus, the user account you use to establish the connection must satisfy one of the following criteria:

  • Belong to the security group "Domain Admin".
  • Set up delegate control of this user under the target Organization Units (OU).
