Active Directory Security Trimming Stage
An Active Directory Security Trimming query pipeline stage retrieves an Active Directory user’s security identifiers to build a security filter. This restricts the documents in the query result to only those documents for which a user has access permissions. Security trimming is commonly used in business to authenticate between administrative users and normal users, or to limit the site access of website users according to a login/password.
Active Directory Security Trimming query stage setup:
curl -u USERNAME:PASSWORD -X POST -H 'Content-type: application/json' -d '{"id":"ADSecurity", "type": "active-directory-security-trimming", "server":"ldap://hostname:port","bindName":"ADuser@example.com","bindPassword":"login1"}' http://localhost:8764/api/query-stages/instances
{
"type" : "active-directory-security-trimming",
"id" : "ADSecurity",
"server" : "ldap://hostname:port",
"bindName" : "ADuser@example.com",
"bindPassword" : "login1",
"enableCache" : true,
"cacheSize" : 1000,
"expirationTime" : 3600,
"skip" : false,
"label" : "active-directory-security-trimming",
"type" : "active-directory-security-trimming"
}

Retrieve AD user's security identifiers and build security filter
skip - boolean
Set to true to skip this stage.
Default: false
label - string
A unique label for this stage.
<= 255 characters
condition - string
Define a conditional script that must result in true or false. This can be used to determine if the stage should process or not.
overrideUserIdentityHandling - boolean
Default handling first attempts to take the user identity from a 'fusion-user-id' http-header, which is the logged-in user ID from the Fusion proxy service. If that value is empty, a 'username' query parameter is tried instead. When this DataSource property is enabled, the specified source and key properties are used explicitly, without any fallback behavior.
Default: false
userIdentitySource - string
Specify whether the value comes from an http header or query parameter.
Default: query_param
Allowed values: query_paramheader
userIdentityKey - string
e.g. username, userID, etc.
Default: username
datasources - array[string]
A list of Fusion datasources to which security-trimming should be restricted, allowing content from other datasources to pass through un-filtered; if empty, all matching content is subject to filtering.
server - stringrequired
E.g. ldap://hostname:port
bindName - stringrequired
username in userPrincipalName format (e.g. user@example.com)
bindPassword - stringrequired
filterAttribute - string
Active Directory attribute to use as the security-trimming filter criterion
Allowed values: objectSidsAMAccountNameuserPrincipalName
enableCache - boolean
Default: true
cacheSize - integer
Default: 1000
expirationTime - integer
(in seconds)
Default: 3600
referral - string
The method for processing referrals encountered by the service provider
Allowed values: followignorethrow
