|
|
2. On the Login screen, select the **Settings** button.
|
|
3. In the **Server URL** field, enter the domain name for your self-hosted instance with `https://`. For example, `https://bitwarden.example.com`.
|
|
4. Select the **Save** button.
|
|
{% endcallout %}
|
|
|
|
## Using Directory Connector
|
|
|
|
The following sections will walk you through typical actions taken with the Desktop App.
|
|
|
|
In all cases, log in with a Bitwarden user account that is an Admin or Owner for the relevant Organization(s). For more information, see [User Types and Access Control]({% link _articles/organizations/user-types-access-control.md %}).

|
|
|
|

|
|
2. Navigate to the **Settings** tab.
|
|

|
|
{% callout success %}

When you're finished configuring, navigate to the **More** tab and select the **Clear Sync Cache** button to prevent potential conflicts with prior sync operations. For more information, see [Clear Sync Cache]({% link _articles/directory-connector/clear-sync-cache.md %}).
|
|
{% endcallout %}
|
|
|
|
### Perform a Sync Test
|
|
|
|
Perform a sync test to check that all configured settings are in-place and working as expected. Sync tests will query the directory server and print the results to the Directory Connector **Dashboard**.
|
|
|
|
1. Open the Directory Connector application.
|
|
2. Navigate to the **Dashboard** tab.
|
|
3. In the **Testing** section, select the **Test Now** button.
|
|
|
|
### Perform a Manual Sync
|
|
|
|
Complete the following steps to run a one-time manual sync between your directory and your Bitwarden Organization:
|
|
|
|
1. Open the Directory Connector application.
|
|
2. Navigate to the **Dashboard** tab.
|
|
3. In the **Sync** section, select the the **Sync Now** button.
|
|
|
|
Your synced users and groups will be immediately available in your Bitwarden Organization. Added users will receive an email invite to your Organization.
|
|
|
|
### Start Automatic Sync
|
|
|
|
Complete the following steps to start automatic sync polling with Directory Connector:
|
|
|
|
1. Open the Directory Connector application.
|
|
2. Navigate to the **Dashboard** tab.
|
|
3. In the **Sync** section, select the **Start Sync** button.
|
|
|
|
Directory Connector will begin polling your directory based on the **Interval** specified in your **Sync Options**.
|
|
|
|
If you exit or close the application, automatic sync will stop. To keep Directory Connector running in the background, minimize the application or hide it to the system tray.
