Retrieve Latest LDAP Changes

Information about users and roles in your LDAP directory is available automatically to Oracle Cloud Applications. However, in specific circumstances you're recommended to run the Retrieve Latest LDAP Changes process. This topic describes when and how to run Retrieve Latest LDAP Changes.

You run Retrieve Latest LDAP Changes if you believe data-integrity or synchronization issues may have occurred between Oracle Cloud Applications and your LDAP directory server. For example, you may notice differences between roles on the Security Console and roles on the Create Role Mapping page. You're also recommended to run this process after any release update.
