Active Directory Query v2

This Integration is part of the Active Directory Query Pack.#

The Active Directory Query integration enables you to access and manage Active Directory objects (users, contacts, and computers). This integration was integrated and tested with version 1.5.0 of Active Directory Query v2

Some changes have been made that might affect your existing content. If you are upgrading from a previous version of this integration, see Breaking Changes.

Use Cases#

Query for Active Directory objects#

Use the !ad-search command to run a query for Active Directory objects (users, contacts, computers, and so on). This command enables you to determine which data fields should be returned for the objects.

Manage users and contacts#

The integration enables you to create, update, and delete users and contacts in Active Directory using the following commands:
- ad-create-user
- ad-create-contact
- ad-update-user
- ad-update-contact
- ad-delete-user (to delete both users and contacts)
Add or remove users from groups using the following commands:
- ad-add-to-group
- ad-remove-from-group
Enable or disable a user account using the following commands:
- ad-enable-account
- ad-disable-user-account

Manage Computers#

Modify a computer organizational unit using the ‘ad-modify-computer-ou’ command.
Add or remove a computer from a group using the following commands:
- ad-add-to-group
- ad-remove-from-group

Identity Lifecycle Management premium pack configuration#

The premium ILM content pack introduces new functionality that uses both an incoming and an outgoing mapper.

Configure the "Incoming Mapper" with the name of the incoming mapper that you're using. ILM's default mapper is "User Profile - Active Directory (Incoming)".
Configure the "Outgoing Mapper" with the name of the outgoing mapper that you're using. ILM's default mapper is "User Profile - Active Directory (Outgoing)".

Note: As part of the configuration of the mapper, you must map a value to the OU (organizational unit) required field. To do this, create a transformer that maps a user attribute of your choice to an OU value.

To allow the integration to access the mapper from within the code, as required by the ILM pack, both mappers have to be configured in their proper respective fields and not in the "Mapper (outgoing)" dropdown list selector.

Incident Mirroring#

You can enable incident mirroring between Cortex XSOAR incidents and Active Directory Query v2 corresponding events (available from Cortex XSOAR version 6.0.0).

To set up the mirroring, enable Fetching incidents in your instance configuration.

Newly fetched incidents will be mirrored in the chosen direction. However, this selection does not affect existing incidents.

Important Note: To ensure the mirroring works as expected, mappers are required, both for incoming and outgoing, to map the expected fields in Cortex XSOAR and Active Directory Query v2.

Breaking changes from the previous version of this integration - Active Directory Query v2#

The following sections list the changes in this version.

Arguments#

The following arguments were added in this version:#

In the ad-get-user command:

Base Command#

get-mapping-fields

Input#

Argument Name	Description	Required
