Is there any way to connect PowerBI to a LDAP so that I can download the information of every user in the LDAP from PBI?
We developed a report connected to an Active Directory, but we have now changed to a LDAP and cannot come with a way to connect.
Any suggestion?
Thanks!

We are developing a ReactJs and NodeJs application where node has to authenticate AD users using LDAP.
We are able to complete the authentication successfully using LDAP,
But the requirement is, in On-prem users are already logged in to the AD and if they open our web it should login without asking credentials again, it it is not happening with LDAP integration.
Can some one please help me.
Thanks in advance.
To add SSO in on-prem Active directory login using LDAP, please follow below steps:
Go to Administration -> Applications and enable Single Sign-On -> click setting -> select LDAP method.
If you want your users to login without using credentials again, set the option to use only SSO authentication only.
UseResponse internal account is created, when a new user logs in against the LDAP server. If you don't want to send internal registration credentials, Disable Registration Email.
In addition to these, include basic settings of your connection:
Give hostname or IP of your LDAP server
Add ldaps:// to hostname when the server has secure connection
Give Base Distinguished Name for your AD with default value dc=localhost.
Enter administration credentials for the connection, if your LDAP server requires authentication.

I am working on an MVC application and there is no authentication mechanism implemented. We have a user's table in SQL Server and there is no password. I want to migrate the users with a random password to Azure Active Directory.
I came across this article which shows that we can have a json file of users and they can be migrated to Azure Active Directory.
I am unable to achieve this. Please help.
Thanks in advance.
I have a requirement where I have to bind MS SQL server users with LDAP (openDJ). Currently I am seeing only option to achieve this is to have AD on SQL server and connect AD with openIDM through LDAP connector.
Is there a way this can be achieved through openAM and openDJ itself, without requiring openIDM in between.
Can you use Pass Through Authentication of OpenDJ?

https://wikis.forgerock.org/confluence/display/OPENDJ/Pass-Through+Authentication
Or JDBC Authentication Module of OpenAM?
https://backstage.forgerock.com/docs/openam/13.5/admin-guide/chap-auth-services#jdbc-module-conf-hints
I got to know that there is no way to achieve this.
I ended up using AD as the primary Directory store as password sync of users from DJ to AD (via IDM in between) was not possible. As the AD connectors available allow the flow of changes from AD to IDM/DJ only.
I have an environment where a cloud based server is hosting a SQL Database. Users connect directly to this in order to run queries and download data.
Rather than setting up user logins and assigning them to roles manually I'd like to inherit these from the company Active Directory account. I can get LDAP credentials on the remote SQL Database but I'm unclear on how I can use this to provide login access for the users (and to correctly assign them to roles).
Many thanks.
You can do it with the help of SSIS. Please check the below link for the same.

I have windows server running ADFS server. I want to Connect to ldap server on it. My questions are
Does running ADFS Server already have LDAP Server running or need to do anything for that? I believe it is running already because I could see open port 389 and 636.
Assuming LDAP server is running, I was trying to connect to it using Google App Directory Sync to get list of users However I was not able to authorize. Is there any default credentials to connect? Or steps to get credentials for LDAP server?
Thanks
An ADFS server is not an Active Directory server - ADFS only extends Active Directory's infrastructure. Ports 389 and 636 are available because ADFS supports the LDAP and LDAPS protocols for communication, and as such, ADFS can retrieve user attributes from Active Directory, and it can also authenticate users against Active Directory. If you already have a directory server running, you need to add it to ADFS as an account store.
There are no default credentials - just use an administrative account that exists in your Active Directory store, as mentioned in point one.
To clarify on terminology for ADFS:
Account Store in ADFS: This is the account store that ADFS authenticates the user against with some form of credential (e.g. Username/password). By default ADFS connects to the Active Directory Domain Services and adds it as a special account store that cannot be deleted. So, any users in this active directory forest or in it's trusted subsystem can authenticate to ADFS. So far, ADFS only supported Active Directory as an account store and nothing else. With Windows Server 2016, it now supports connecting any LDAP v3 compliant directory as an account store. ADFS does not open LDAP ports as it is not an LDAP server. If ADFS were collocated with a domain controller, you would see LDAP ports open.
Attribute Store in ADFS: This a store where you can augment additional information about the user AFTER the user authenticates. By default ADFS has a default attribute store for ADDS that is setup by virtue of the install. Beyond this, it has in-built adapters that can be instantiated to connect to SQL or ADLDS (lightweight directory service). It also has an extensible API to connect to any other attribute store of your choice via .NET. People connect to Oracle/SAP data base, FIM metaverse etc.
#Srikanth: You will use the ADFS claims language or the UI to query for additional data using the attribute store model. In the UI, you would see it when you configure the issuance authorization rules or the issuance claims rules.
Hope that helps
