Download latest version of Auth0 LDAP connector from here and install on your Windows Server
- Follow instructions in the above article to setup the connector
- In one of the setup steps in the article, you will be asked to enter a TICKET URL (shown in the screenshot below). Please ask the DAtAnchor team to share the URL to continue
- Once you paste the TICKET URL and click Continue, you will be presented with a screen as shown below.
Fill in the following details:
1. LDAP Connection String: It will be autocompleted once you paste the TICKET URL in the previous step. If it does not, then enter a string with this format ldap://<server-name>.<domain name>
2. Base DN: It will be autocompleted once you paste the TICKET URL in the previous step. If it does not then,
a. On server's Command Prompt, run **dsquery ***
C:\\Users\\Administrator>dsquery *
b. The first output displayed is your Base DN:
"DC=example-domain,DC=com"
3. Username: The distinguishedName(DN) of the admin/service account. To get the DN of the account,
a. On server's Command Prompt, run dsquery user -name <known username> to get the DN of the user account.
"CN=username,CN=Users,DC=example-domain,DC=com"
4. Password: The admin/service account password.
- Click Save

- Now give the connector couple of minutes to finish all the required configurations.
- Navigate to Search tab.
- In the Search users option, type a known username from in your company. The connector should return a valid response as shown below.
- If the response is valid then the setup is done!!
- If not, please contact DAtAnchor Support at help@anchormydata.com or raise a ticket
Troubleshooting
If the Search Users tab returns an error then after step was successful:
- It can mean the Auth0 LDAP connector is still configuring things. Please give it a few minutes and try again
- If it not working after more than 5 minutes then consider restarting the LDAP connector from the Task Manager. Restart the services shown in the below screenshot. Try to search for a user after this.
- If it still not working after the above step, then restart the Windows Server.
