[CDSW] LDAP User Settings in Grafana

Hyeonseo — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 07:08:07 GMT

I'm trying to add users after setting up LDAP in Grafana on CDSW.

Currently, only the default Admin account exists and is required to be added with email approval.
We manage users using LDAP of AD (Acrive Directory).

While attempting to add LDAP user settings in Grafana, we found that the current physical path of Grafana, "/var/lib/grafana/", does not exist.

I tried to add LDAP settings to grafana.ini and ldap.toml in "/var/lib/grafana", but the file does not exist even if I search the entire server.

When I accessed the Grafana pod directly and checked, path and files existed.

Where can I find the grafana.ini and ldap.toml files?

Is there any other way to solve this problem?
Thank you for any help.

@Hyeonseo thanks for your post.
CDSW presently allows only admin users to access the grafana dashboard. CDSW out of the box does not support LDAP integration on grafana. Considering the nature of the request, I would suggest working with your account team and get a custom solution built for you.
