Follow this document and use can find the configurations for SAML handler and other ldap related configs

If you have the same configurations then, check below documentation for user sync

Are you using SAML authentication ?

I don't know if the integrated ldap module in AEM uses it? How can I find it out?

Thanks for answer. As concern as your provided links, I've already created these configurations and I'm able to run it successfully. I don't understand why it nessecary. By the way, the goal for this requiremnt is to reduce stored user accounts to a minimal number.

It works after solving an issue with ranking. It was nessecary to gave one module a higher ranking.

Hi, accendently I found this question and I checked my enviroment. The SAML authentication is not used. According this documention SAML does allow importing user during login.
