Applies to enterprise.
This document is intended to walk you through the installation of User Sync tool to automate the user management process.
The User Sync tool is a command-line utility that moves user and group information from your organization’s enterprise directory system (such as an Active Directory or other LDAP systems) to your organization’s directory in the Adobe Admin Console. Each time you run the User Sync tool, it looks for differences between the user and group information in the two systems and updates the Adobe directory to match the information in your directory.
This document provides step-by-step instructions to interface an Active Directory system with the Adobe Admin Console. This is one of the most popular combinations that our customers use in the K-12 and SMB segments. The User Sync tool is flexible and can be used to interface with most LDAP and directory systems. If you're using a directory system other than Active Directory, the instructions in this document do not apply directly; modify as required. For more information, see the Setup and Success Guide.
