Does Ambari server need ldap-sync to be executed after adding an user to groups in AD

We have Ambari 2.1.1 with Ambari views and AD integration. Do we need to run ldap-sync after an user is added to the group in AD. We have an issue where user is not authorized until we ran ldap-sync even though the user was part of the group having access to Views.

Hi @nyakkanti, see this for Ambari REST API calls to automate ldap-sync and run it using cron.

Hi there @nyakkanti you do indeed need to re-run ldap-sync so that Ambari will be able to know about that new user.

This is covered in more detail at the link below:
