When using the text or LDAP directory synchronization connector, make sure the Manager field is a valid username.
How do you do that if the manager field in AD is a distinguishedName?. It is not a username.
Hi Gabriel,
The synchronization will only work if the manager field represents a valid username. That’s how we will be able to connect the users in the application.

Do you have a suggestion? How do I make it work? I can’t imagine I am the only one with this AD configuration?
Has anyone come up with a solution for what ParadimeWeb is asking?
Hi @asullivan78,
If you retrieve the distinguishedName attribute in your User synchronization query, you can Edit the mapping and select this attribute for the manager field.

Can we see the query?
Hi @ParadimeWeb,
Here it is:
LDAP://servername:port/DC=thecompany,DC=com;(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(sn=*)(sAMAccountName=*)(memberOf=CN=TheSpecificCN,OU=LowestOU,OU=HigherOU,DC=thecompany,DC=com)(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)));adsPath,OBJECTSID,distinguishedName,sAMAccountName,sn,GivenName,mail,telephoneNumber,mobile,pager,facSimileTelephoneNumber,department,company,EmployeeType,EmployeeId,title,initials,postalAddress,postalCode,physicalDeliveryOfficeName,st,L,co,manager;subtree
