      Tips for crafting your User Sync query with LDAP syntax

      LDAP query example

      Using your LDAP Query tool, create an LDAP query that only returns user members (e.g. no nested groups).

      Base DN

      ou=freshmen,dc=yourdomain,dc=com

      Query examples

      • (cn=*) all

      • (&(cn=*)(!(cn=andy))) all, except andy

      • (&(cn=*)(!(|(cn=andy)(cn=rose)) all, except andy or rose

      • (&(cn=*)(!(memberOf=ou=XYZ,dc=yourdomain,dc=com))) all, except from XYZ

      • (sAMAccountName=youruser) only 1 specific logon name

      • (|(cn=andy)(cn=frank)(cn=amy))  only these 3 users

      • (&(objectCategory=user)(memberOf=cn=MyCustomGroup,ou=XYZ,dc=subdomain,dc=domain,dc=com)) gets all users under a custom group MyCustomGroup
