# LDAP Integration (user_ldap)
[](LICENSE) [](https://kiteworks.com/opensource) [](https://hub.docker.com/r/owncloud/server)
The LDAP Integration app connects ownCloud Server to LDAP and Active Directory services for user authentication and group management. It synchronizes users and groups from the directory server, supports multiple LDAP connections and provides configurable attribute mapping, enabling organizations to integrate ownCloud seamlessly with their existing identity infrastructure.
## Part of Classic (OC10)
This app is a core component of the [ownCloud Server (OC10)](https://github.com/owncloud/core) authentication stack. It provides the primary enterprise authentication mechanism, connecting ownCloud to LDAP servers (such as OpenLDAP) and Microsoft Active Directory.
The ownCloud Server is available on [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/owncloud/server).
## Getting Started
Follow the steps below to enable and configure LDAP integration.
### Installation
The LDAP app is bundled with ownCloud Server. Enable it via:
```bash
php occ app:enable user_ldap
```
### Running Tests
```bash
make test-php-unit # Run PHP unit tests
make test-php-style # Check code style
make test-php-phpstan # Run PHPStan static analysis
make test-acceptance-api # Run LDAP API acceptance tests
make test-acceptance-cli # Run LDAP CLI acceptance tests
make test-acceptance-webui # Run LDAP WebUI acceptance tests
```
### Configuration Options
Add to `config.php` for medial (substring) search:
```php
'user_ldap.enable_medial_search' => true
```
Configure attribute update interval via `occ`:
```bash
occ config:app:set user_ldap updateAttributesInterval --value=3600
```

### License Migration to Apache 2.0
The OSPO is driving a strategic relicensing of ownCloud repositories toward the
[Apache License 2.0](https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0), following
the [Apache Software Foundation's third-party license policy](https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html).
Individual repositories will migrate as their audit is completed. The LICENSE file
in each repo reflects its **current** license status (not the target).
**Current license: AGPL-3.0** (Category X per Apache policy -- cannot be included in Apache-2.0 works).
Migration prerequisites for this repository:
- **CLA/DCO coverage**: All past contributors must have signed agreements permitting relicensing
- **Copyleft dependency audit**: All AGPL/GPL dependencies must be replaced or isolated
- **KDE heritage review**: Any code with KDE-era copyrights requires legal analysis
- **Complete relicensing**: AGPL-3.0 is a strong copyleft license; migration requires full relicensing of all files, not just a header change
