   • LDAP URL: It is a string that can be used to encapsulate the address and port of a directory server. It specifies the LDAP host, port, and root.
   • Bind Type: The value for this field is DN (Distinguished Name). A Bind DN consists of the user and the location of the user in the LDAP directory tree.
   • Search DN: Search DN is used to define criteria for identifying entries that contain information about the DN.
     
   • Use Service Account: If this toggle button is set to ON, Jiffy looks for the user in the Service Account first, and validates the user based on the selected bind type. It is a two-way authentication process, if the service account credentials are not correct, an error message is displayed indicating that the username does not exist.
     
     The following fields are displayed only when Use Service Account is toggled ON.
     • Username: Service account username.
     • Password: Service account password.

   The Username and Password fields are mandatory and can be filled using the values fromSecure Vault.
