Get and search operations (Oracle Internet Directory)

Explains how Content Platform Engine performs LDAP searches by various attributes.

This section describes some of the interactions between Content Platform Engine and OID.

Get User or Group by Short Name

Iterate through all realms. For each realm:

  1. Connect to corresponding host.
  2. Search for the user or group by short name.
  3. If found, return.

If more than one user or group is found, Content Platform Engine will log an error and return the first user found. Content Platform Engine requires that short names be unique across domains.

Get User or Group by DN
  1. Resolve the realm name from the DN.
  2. Connect to corresponding host.
  3. Search for the user or group by DN.
Get User or Group by SID

Iterate through all realms. For each realm:

  1. Connect to corresponding host.
  2. Search for the user or group by SID.
  3. If found, return.
Search Users or Groups in a Given Realm
  1. Connect to the host corresponding to the specified realm.
  2. Search for the users or groups by the search criteria.
