The LDAP Identifier Validator queries an LDAP server to determine if an Identifier (manually or automatically assigned) is in use (and therefore not permitted).
Configuration
This is a non-core plugin, see Installing and Enabling Registry Plugins for more information.
- The Search Filter defines the query executed against the LDAP server. Any valid LDAP search filter may be specified, with the placeholder
%s
used to represent the new identifier. For example, if the filteruid=%s
is configured, and the identifierabc1
is saved, the queryuid=abc1
will be executed to check for availability. If the search returns any matches, the identifier is considered in use, and the save will fail (and in an automatic assignment, another identifier will be generated).
