Mappings Tab

The Mappings tab allows administrators to link different authentication systems with Active Directory.

By creating these mappings, you specify which profiles are accessible to users authenticating through OAuth 2.0 on their corresponding AD user or group associations.

To complete this process, map the desired Active Directory users or groups to the specific profiles you want to enable for a given OAuth 2.0 user. This ensures that authenticated users are presented with the appropriate profiles linked to their Active Directory identities.

To access mappings configuration settings, navigate to Configuration Manager>Authentication>Mappings.
