Hi

What is this for? We already setup to use external AD as the user repository in LDAPUserRegistryProvider.

Thanks

See this article: https://jazz.net/library/article/457

It's primarily used in situations where your user accounts reside on an LDAP server, but you don't want to manage the groups (JazzAdmins/JazzUsers/etc) within the LDAP server.

Instead you can have a CSV mapping file on your CLM server and manually specify which users are in which groups. This isn't ideal for most large scale deployments, but it can be useful if you either don't have write access to the LDAP server or if you're just setting up a test instance and don't want to go the trouble of performing some LDAP configuration.

This is good since we need to request to domain admin to add a new user to Jazz.Users group, and it takes time.

Is there an instruction for WAS?

Thanks
