Example

The following example demonstrates how to use the APEX_LDAP.MEMBER_OF function to retrieve all the groups designated by the specified username.

DECLARE
    L_MEMBERSHIP apex_application_global.vc_arr2;
BEGIN
    L_MEMBERSHIP := APEX_LDAP.MEMBER_OF(
        p_username => 'firstname.lastname',
        p_pass => 'abcdef',
        p_auth_base => 'cn=user,l=amer,dc=my_company,dc=com',
        p_host => 'our_ldap_sever.my_company.com',
        p_port => '636'
        p_use_ssl => 'A');
  
    FOR i IN L_MEMBERSHIP.FIRST..L_MEMBERSHIP.LAST LOOP
        htp.p('Member of: '||L_MEMBERSHIP(i));
    END LOOP;
END;
