Excluding Group Creation using LDAP config

[Abdul_Rasheed]

Hello Everyone,

We have configured AEM user authentication to go via LDAP.

Wanted to know if it is possible to configure a whitelist of groups which alone should be created when users log in. We want to avoid the number of groups getting created on the AEM isntance.

Please suggest if there are any configurable options available in LDAP config file. 

Thanks,

Abdul

• With Auto Creation configured you can automatically create accounts within CRX, based on LDAP account information. You can also map LDAP user and/or group information to CRX properties.

Based on this, it should be possible to map multiple LDAP groups to crx.

Thanks Lokesh for the response, creation of group does happen but the need here is to restrict unwanted groups from being created. Like applying filters on the groups. If I get around 50 groups for a user, groups specific to this site will be 30, hence I need to fitler out the 20 groups before they get created on this AEM instance. Is there any way to have this setting in place ?

Thank,

Abdu
