License Optimizer also supports LDAP Directories.

Note

The LDAP directory permission settings will affect License Optimizer

LDAP permission settings


Read/Write (tick)

In that case, Jira has permission to manipulate the LDAP groups. Both the login and the access group must be an LDAP group. With that permission settings, License Optimizer will work properly.

(warning) Creating user group in Jira with Read/Write permission: If you are creating a new group, with Read/Write permission, Please note that LDAP users create LDAP groups and local users create local groups so always make sure to log in with the correct user before creating new user groups.

Read Only with local groups (tick)

In this case LDAP users, groups and memberships are retrieved from your directory server and can only be modified via your directory server. You cannot modify LDAP users, groups or memberships via the application administration screens. However, you can add groups to the internal directory and add LDAP users to those groups.

If the access group is a local group then the License Optimizer will work. The login group can be either local or an “Read Only with local groups” LDAP group.

Read Only (error)

In case the LDAP permission is set to read-only, License Optimizer will nothave permission to manipulate the user groups. That means the application won’t be able to work!
