Aem Author - SlingRepository login

[robertol6836527]

Good morning, my Author machine only allows Ldap users to log in.

Could you tell me if SlingRepository's "repository.login" function uses the ldap module?

The code contained in a "service" is the following:

Reference
 private SlingRepository repository;

.

.

.

session = repository.login(new SimpleCredentials(username, password.toCharArray()));

Hi @robertol6836527 As per your question, your author machine only accepts LDAP users because user accounts available in the AEM author server are in sync with users available in LDAP server. 

You should go through below article to get more info on AEM-LDAP integration.
