LDAP Import - Photo's

[Martyn Houghton]

Would it be possible via the LDAP Importer to populate/update the analyst pictures in Hornbill from the picture held in the active directory?

Hi @Martyn Houghton,

I had already queried this before and I have no idea where I got my response from. This is currently possible to do:
https://wiki.hornbill.com/index.php/LDAP_User_Import

Do a search for "ImageLink" and the details are there. You will need to upgrade your LDAP_Import tool and Conf files if you havent done so for a while. The URI we use is "thumbnailPhoto" which also has to be defined under LDAPAttributes. The example provided on the Github link below is basically what we use

Hope that helps,

Samuel

Well got a bit further, have updated to version 2..2.1 of the tool and configured it as per the Wiki, but for each user we get the following error.

Config contains the following settings, and thumbnailPhoto is listed in the attributes section. Also tried it with the png option.

    "ImageLink":{
        "Action":"Both",
        "Enabled": true,
        "UploadType": "AD",
        "InsecureSkipVerify": true,
        "ImageType": "jpg",
        "URI": "thumbnailPhoto"
    },

Just going to double check with our IT that they are using the standard thumbnailPhoto attribute for storing staff images.

Would also appear that the process has deleted the existing manually uploaded profile pictures as well, so every one is a grey person now!

Can you change  "URI": "thumbnailPhoto" to  "URI": "[thumbnailPhoto]" and try again please? This was a change made recently to keep field mapping unique across the configuration variables. 

Also make sure thumbnailPhoto is listed in the attributes section of the configuration. 

Kind Regards

That did the the trick with the "URI": "[thumbnailPhoto]", we now have pictures again.

Might we worth updating the example section in the download as well.

Thanks.
