Active Directory function is supported starting with BioStar 2 Version 2.7.5.

Furthermore, with BioStar 2 Version 2.7.8, unlike previous versions of BioStar 2 Version 2.7.8,
users can now selectively synchronize user information through the ‘User Group’ section.

Go to Setting → Active Directory, you can set up the Active Directory setting with the screen below.

Red square area 'User group' is newly added from BioStar 2 Version 2.7.8.


The initial value is 'Inactive', which synchronizes all users.

Once you move the bar to 'Active', now BioStar 2 will synchronize users according to the 'User Group Base DN' and 'User Group' setting.


User Group Base DN

* When you click the button 'Pull User Group' after inserting the value, the user group information of AD server gets imported.

Note: Initial value 'None' before you click the button

User Group

* If 'User Group' is selected, 'Update' button gets activated.

* The information is saved once you click 'Update'. If the user group information does not get updated at least once, an error will popup when user attempts to synchronize.

* If 'Pull User Group' is selected once again, the existing User Group settings get reset.

User Group information on AD is not displayed in BioStar.
