  • Backend: select AD
  • Hostname: IP address or domain name of remote server
  • Port: specify the port (389 by default)
  • Secure connection: enable encryption during the connection
  • User: user with the rights to access to the server
  • Password: password of user to access to the server
  • Base DN: Distinguished Name of the base depends on customer’s database structure (e.g. dc=wildix,dc=local)
  • Windomain (import of users): the domain name that user name is connected to and which is required for Active Directory authentication

    Note

    Note: The Windomain field is available starting from WMS 5.04.20220425.1

    In case the Windomain field is empty, the data is taken from Base DN. 


  • Full domain (import of users): the field allows to add a custom domain

    Note

    Note: The Full domain field is available starting from WMS 5.04.20220819.1.


  • Sign-on (import of users): enable the option to allow sign-on with AD credentials for imported users 

    Note

    Note: Automatic AD Single Sign-on is available. Consult Active Directory Single Sign-On for details.


  • Allow only single Sign-on (import of users): enable the option to allow only single sign-on. If the option is enabled, login of users to Collaboration with WEB password is not possible

...

  • Example: SELECT ${MAP} FROM `export_csv_user_10000` WHERE `type`="user" 
  • Example for query for import of of contacts from SAP Business One: select '' as empty, OCRD.CardCode, CardName, Name, Tel1, OCPR.Fax, Cellolar, E_mailL, Title from OCRD INNER JOIN OCPR ON OCRD.cardcode = OCPR.cardcode where cardtype = 'S' (More information on SAP B1 integration: https://www.wildix.com/sap-business-one/

In this example only those fields from the “Map” section will be imported, which are present in “export_csv_user_10000” table and only for contacts whose type is “user”.

...

Note

Note: It is also possible to enable connection to MSSQL instance.

Requirement: SQL Server browser must be running on MSSQL host. Please check the Microsoft documentation for detailed information on SQL browser.

Backend settings:

  • Hostname: specify MSSQL instance in the form of ip_adress_of_SQL_server\instance_name. For example, 10.100.1.231\wildixdb
  • Port: there is no need to specify the port when connecting to MSSQL instance. By default MSSQL itself listens on TCP port number 1433, but for instances the TCP port is dynamically configured
  • User and Password: enter the credentials to access to MSSQL Server
  • Database name: the name of database to be imported
  • Timeout: specify connection timeout
