Question

When will the LDAP reader move from Technology Preview to production

We have to update email address and phone number employee information in a REST available application from LDAP/AD and want to use FME. With the LDAP reader being in Technology Preview stage we are a little concerned about moving down this path and may have to use a .net application instead. Is there a timeline for when the LDAP/AD reader will be ready?

 

Thanks,

 

Simon

In developing the reader, our team came across some limitations of the underlying technology which are not in our control, which means the existing format is very unlikely to leave Tech Preview. For our recommended usage, see https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/ldap_jdbc/SQL-Like-Queries.htm

 

If the current version of the LDAP Reader is working for you, it may help to know that, for the same reasons we aren't moving it out of Tech Preview, there'll likely be no further changes to it.

 

Though we've noted a need for another solution (internal reference CONNECT-542), there's unfortunately no timeline as of now.
