How To Import Active Directory users and groups into NPrinting.

 

Environment

  • June 2019 and later versions of NPrinting

 

Solution

It is essential to work with your Active Directory and or LDAP administrator to ensure:

  • NPrinting LDAP import settings are perfectly accurate for your AD/LDAP environment.
  • For example for the 'User' property setting of the NP LDAP import, your organization might use 'user' rather than 'inetorgperson'. These settings are dependent on each unique LDAP environment and must be configured in the NPrinting LDAP import settings accordingly.
  • It is only possible to import domain users, emails and groups (NP roles and or NP Groups). If you require filters associated with each user, you will need to follow and link the NPrinting Recipient import process with your LDAP import. See link in "Related Content" section below

Once your combined Recipient file and LDAP user/group import is complete and successful, you may log into NPrinting using the Blue windows authentication button on the NPrinting Web Console or NewsStand login page.

hello, 

i've tryed to do the same steps, the import of users was done correctly

but when i try to connect with one of the users created, it seems like wrong password.

i checked the database repository, i found that the hashed_password field is null.

Hi, thanks for this. It shows how to import LDAP users, but how do you keep the synchronised without continually having to manually import?

Hi there.

As you work your way through the many links, you will see this one.

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/May2023/Content/NPrinting/DeployingQVNprinting/Import-Users-Fi...

This will explain how to schedule the import using the schedule task trigger within the import task.

Kind regards.
