Active Directory Actions

Actions are the operations (or API operations) that you can perform on Active Directory by simple drag-drop and data mapping of elements and values from input trigger, derived values using formulas or desired constant that you may wish to map.

All of the actions that you see in Figure 1 automate what you can do manually on Active Directory.

As shown below, you can Create, Update or terminate user(s) in your Active Directory based in response to a trigger event.
