Testing LDAP and JDBC Configurations

You can test user and group configurations for an Identity service in the following ways:

Select a user for testing

Write a test query

The Test tab is the same for JDBC and LDAP.

After selecting this tab, the following is displayed:

Test Tab for LDAP or JDBC-based Identitry Service

Selecting a user for testing

In the Test tab, enter a user name listed in your Identity service, and select Test Settings
. This test ensures that the Identity service is set up correctly. If the test fails, the error messages try to suggest how to correct the configuration settings.

Writing a test query

The Process Server Identity search model allows identity queries to be made using the SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language. SPARQL is a standard language, well-suited to query identity resources. The Process Server use of SPARQL includes preconfiguring most of the required parts of the query. You need only to add a FILTER keyword to test the user and group attributes you added on the Users and Groups tabs of the Identity Service configuration page.

By writing the FILTER clause of a SPARQL expression, you can test the results of required and optional attributes. The default FILTER clause in the Test Query box is:

FILTER($userName="[FILL IN NAME]")

. Replace the text between the quotes with a user name and select Test Query.

For details on writing SPARQL queries, see

http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-query

Sample SPARQL Queries

FILTER (($memberOf = "NE_Reps") || ($memberOf="NW_Reps"))

Select users that are members of either the "NE Reps" or "NW Reps" group

FILTER ( (($memberOf = "NE_Reps") || ($memberOf="NW_Reps")) && BOUND(?email) )

Select users that are members of either the "NE Reps" or "NW Reps" group and have an email address

FILTER($vacation != "On Vacation")

Select users who are not on vacation.

Note that the Test Query box accepts only literals for testing.
