The Automation Orchestrator plug-in for Microsoft Active Directory allows interaction between Automation Orchestrator and Microsoft Active Directory. You can use the plug-in to run Automation Orchestrator workflows that automate Active Directory processes.

The Active Directory plug-in contains a set of standard workflows. You can also create custom workflows that implement the plug-in API to automate tasks in your Active Directory environment.

Configuring the Active Directory Plug-In

To connect to a Microsoft Active Directory instance by using the Active Directory plug-in, you must configure the connection parameters for the Microsoft Active Directory instance by running the configuration workflows included in the plug-in.

To access these workflows in the Automation Orchestrator Client, navigate to Library > Workflows and enter the active_directory and configuration tags in the workflow search box.
