Group Member Synchronization Rules
- Only groups that have already been added into AgilePoint will be synchronized with Active Directory. New Active Directory groups will not be added automatically to AgilePoint. The new Active Directory groups can be added manually through the Enterprise Manager interface.
- The changes of user members (adding or removing) in the Active Directory groups will be synchronized to AgilePoint but the changes in AgilePoint groups will NOT be synchronized back to the Active Directory.
- The synchronization only applies to member association (Add or Remove) within the groups. Group properties such as names and descriptions are NOT synchronized.
- When a new member is added to Active Directory, this member will also be added to the corresponding AgilePoint group. If the actual user entity is not registered in AgilePoint yet, the user entity will be registered to AgilePoint automatically.
- When a member is removed from Active Directory, this member in the corresponding AgilePoint group will also be removed. The actual user entity will NOT be removed from AgilePoint as the same user entity can also be associated with other groups in the system.
- If the Active Directory contains sub-groups (Nested groups), the members in the sub-groups will also be synchronized and the members will be added to or removed from the top level group.
