Description
This article describes how to import LDAP user through CSV.

Solution
1) Go to Domain & User -> User -> User -> New.
2) Create a new dummy local user, and export the user to CSV file.



 
 
3) Remove the dummy user entry from the row, and fill in the fields (User name/Display/Ldap name) accordingly.
 
 
 
 
4) It is important not to change the column name as it is case sensitive and it may cause the import to fail
5) Ensure that the LDAP name column matches the LDAP profile name defined under Profile -> LDAP.
 
 
 
 
6) When the changes are done, import the user via the Import CSV option under Domain & User -> User -> User -> Import .CSV.
