Issue
- We have an LDAP server connected to Liferay and we want to deactivate Liferay users automatically when they are deactivated on LDAP.
Environment
- Liferay DXP 7.3
- Liferay DXP 7.4
Resolution
- We can use the Status attribute to achieve it:
1. Access Control Panel > Instance Settings > Security > LDAP > Servers.
2. Edit the LDAP Server configuration.
3. Map the corresponding attribute from your LDAP into the Status field.
4. Press save.
- The appropiate values are:
0 to active users and 5 to deactive users, so your LDAP attribute has to provide these values.
When a LDAP user is imported into Liferay, the user is automatically activated if the Status field recives a 0 value and deacivated if the Status field recives a 5 value.
