Connect PE to an external Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory service and manage permissions with role-based access control (RBAC).

Connecting LDAP external directory services to PE
Puppet Enterprise connects to external Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory services through its role-based access control (RBAC) service. Because PE integrates with cloud LDAP service providers such as Okta, you can use existing users and user groups that have been set up in your external directory service. -
Working with user groups from a LDAP external directory
You don’t explicitly add remote users to PE. Instead, after the external directory service has been successfully connected, remote users must log into PE, which creates their user record.
