Adding an Active Directory Group

User access is determined by Active Directory groups on the Active Directory server.

To add an Active Directory group:

  1. Make sure that the Active Directory group is set up on the Active Directory server.

    NOTE: The Active Directory groups must already exist on the Active Directory server. You cannot assign a group to more than one role.

    TIP: You can add individual users to your Active Directory groups through the Location Access settings in the Admin Console at any time.

  2. In the Active Directory Status section, click Add an Active Directory.

    The Configure Active Directory page opens.

    The Active Directory information at the top of the page is grayed and unavailable. To update it, edit the Active Directory entry.

  3. Identify the Active Directory server:

    Item Description
    Display Name Enter the name (up to 50 characters) that will reference Active Directory.
    Domain Enter the domain name assigned to the Active Directory server, if any.
    Container

    Enter the container name for organization units (OU), if any.

    AD Account Name

    Enter the name of the user who is a domain administrator on the Active Directory.

    AC Account Password Enter the password for the user who is a domain administrator on the Active Directory.
  4. Add one or more Active Directory groups:

    Item Description

    Administrators Specify the Active Directory group(s) with users who will be assigned Administrator access to Imprivata PatientSecure.
