User Management Tool 1.8

The User Management Tool enables you to provision employee user accounts and distribution groups from Active Directory (AD).

The User Management Tool:

  • Enables provisioned users to sign in to ShareFile using their AD credentials.
  • Stores user account provisioning rules with your account information in ShareFile. You can install the tool on any machine and access your rules by logging in to your account.
  • Matches ShareFile accounts to AD based on email address, links your existing employee accounts to AD, and updates employee account information in ShareFile.
  • Enables you to specify options, including the authentication method and default storage zone for each provisioning rule.
  • Enables you to use distribution groups to manage folders and easily share documents with a group.
  • Keeps ShareFile in sync with AD changes based on the schedule you specify. You can create multiple, named synchronization jobs in the User Management Tool. To run a job, the User Management Tool uses the same Windows user context that was active when the job was scheduled.
  • Supports a proxy server connection between the User Management Tool and ShareFile.
  • Includes a log file to help with troubleshooting ShareFile API-related issues.
