Hello,

Please find the regarding documentation information according to LDAP Configuration

- [LDAP Integration](http://www.flowable.org/docs/userguide/index.html#chapter_ldap)
- [LDAP App Configuration - Not a direct link so scroll to Ldap section](http://www.flowable.org/docs/userguide/index.html#flowableIDMApp)

Hope it helps.

Hi jean,  
Thanks for your prompt reply, but would like to inform i tried uncommenting ldap configuration in flowable-ui-app.properties in flowable-idm, but as soon as i restart server and hit the flowable idm ui of task ui , it gives 500.  
Didnt try the approach which suggests changing beans, could not understand this particular approach.  
Need further help

Thanks and regards

Hi,

The documentation here ([http://www.flowable.org/docs/userguide/index.html#flowableIDMApp](http://www.flowable.org/docs/userguide/index.html#flowableIDMApp)), described the properties you need to set to connect to your LDAP system. Did you fill-in the environment specific values for you in there? If you receive a 500 error, could you add the exception message that is logged in the servlet container / application server?

Best regards,

Tijs
