Configuring a Hybrid Directory Service

This high-level task demonstrates how to configure a hybrid directory service using Process Administrator.

This task assumes that you have created your organization within your LDAP provider, including organizational units, groups, and users. It also assumes that you have created and configured a directory service using the Admin Center. Oracle BPM Enterprise uses this directory service to connect to your LDAP server.

See Creating a New Directory Service for more information.

Launch Process Administrator
Verify that LDAP information is being read by Process Administrator.
1. Click Organization > Organizational Unit . The organizational units defined in your LDAP server appear in the list of organizational units.
2. Click Organization > Groups The groups defined in your LDAP server appear in the list of groups.
3. Click Organization > Participants The participants defined in your LDAP server appear in the list of participants.
If you do not see your LDAP organization information within Process Administrator, check the configuration of your directory service.
Create roles using Process Administrator
Roles are used to control access to different activities within a process.

See Creating a Role
After creating roles, you must assign the roles to the appropriate groups and participants.
Assign roles to groups See Assigning Roles to Groups Using Process Administrator
Assign roles to participants See Assigning a Role to a Participant Using Process Administrator

After configuring a hybrid directory service, you should deploy and publish a project. Then, you should login to the WorkSpace to ensure that access to different activities within a process are available to the correct participants in your LDAP organization.
