Setting Up LDAP Integration

This section lists prerequisites and discusses how to set up SAIP LDAP integration with a directory that has been added to PeopleSoft.

Before a directory can be added to SAIP integration, it must first be added to the PeopleSoft installation via the Directory Setup page select (PeopleTools, then select Security, then select Directory, then select Configure Directory). Only the information on the Directory Setup need be entered. It is not necessary to cache the directory schema.

The following SAIP services must be enabled in order for LDAP integration to function:

  • PUBLISHINSTITUTION

  • PUBLISHACADORG

  • PUBLISHINSTITUTIONTOTARGET

  • PUBLISHACADORGTOTARGET

  • PUBLISHCOURSETEMPLATE

  • PUBLISHCLASSSECTION

  • PUBLISHCOMBINEDSECTION

  • PUBLISHPERSON

  • PUBLISHSTDNTCAREERTERM

  • PUBLISHSTUDENTENROLLMENT

  • PUBLISHTERM

See PeopleSoft Enterprise Components for PeopleSoft HRMS & Campus Solutions 9.0, “Using PeopleSoft Directory Interface, Configuring the Directory Connection.”
