Active Directory Triggers

Currently, Connect iPaaS provides six types of event triggers for Active Directory. The Active Directory triggers on Connect iPaaS are polling triggers which means that RoboMQ will check for changes made in your directory after certain time intervals that the user selects. The six triggers are as follows:

  1. A member is removed from a specific Security Group.
  2. A member is removed from a specific Distribution List.
  3. A new member is added under a specific Distribution List.
  4. A new member is added under a specific Security Group.
  5. An existing user is updated in an Organization Unit.
  6. New user added to an Organization Unit.
