Synchronize user groups

Maintaining the security and consistency of your systems requires up-to-date synchronization between user groups and their associated identity providers. Devolutions Server streamlines this process by offering flexible options for synchronization: manual (From domain) or scheduled.

Manual synchronization (From domain)

  1. Open Devolutions Server.

  2. Go to AdministrationUser groups.

  3. Click Group synchronization.

Scheduled synchronization

  1. Open Devolutions Server.

  2. Go to AdministrationUser groups.

  3. Click Group synchronization.

  4. Select Synchronization schedule.

  5. The User and Group Scheduled Synchronization window opens.

  6. Check the Enable box to activate scheduled synchronization.

  7. Choose recurrence type:

    • Interval: Select this to synchronize at consistent intervals (e.g., every 1 hour).

    • Daily: Specify a particular time of day for daily synchronization.

  8. Set time parameters:

    • For Interval, define the frequency in hours and minutes.

    • For Daily, set the number of days between synchronizations and the exact time for execution.

  9. Check Replicate external provider state if needed. Accounts that are disabled or deleted will be replicated with the same status.

  10. Check Unassign licenses for disabled users if needed. When enabled, Devolutions Server automatically unassigns licenses from disabled user so those licenses can be reassigned to active users.

  11. Click Save to apply the changes.
