Managing Domain Credentials
You can import user information from any directory service you have access to. Before configuring an Active Directory Synchronization job, you must create a Domain Credentials record that specifies the source and contains the credentials and connection details for accessing user information.
If you plan to import user information only from the Active Directory domain you are currently logged in to, you will not need Domain Credentials records. You may skip this section and proceed to Configuring Active Directory Synchronization Jobs.
