Mirror groups

If you want to manage group memberships via LDAP/SAML and not via RapidMiner Server, you can create a mirror group. A mirror group keeps group memberships in sync between LDAP/SAML and RapidMiner Server by using LDAP/SAML logins to update the group information stored on RapidMiner Server.

Any regular group can be turned into a mirror group. Once the group is turned into a mirror group, it loses all the users that were assigned to it, but it gains new members automatically when an LDAP/SAML-authenticated user logs in.

If theadministratorgroup is turned into a mirror group, it is recommended to remove the ‘admin’ user afterwords, as this account will no longer be needed.

Defining mirror groups

You can change a group to a mirror group in the web interface of RapidMiner Server, underAdministration > User management.

  1. UnderAdministration > User management, select theGroupstab.

  2. Select any of the groups. Please note the columnGroup managed by LDAP/SAMLthat indicates the mirrored status and the columnLDAP/SAML groups bound to this groupthat indicates the corresponding LDAP/SAML group.

  3. CheckGroup managed by LDAP/SAMLto turn a regular group into a mirror group, or uncheck it to change it back to a non-mirrored group. If selected, members of the LDAP/SAML groups specified below are automatically added to this group when they log in.

  4. When a group is mirrored, current RapidMiner users get removed from it, and a new entry appears inLDAP/SAML groups bound to this group. These LDAP/SAML groups may be automatically or manually created.

  5. The left side contains the available and the right side contains the already associated LDAP/SAML groups. You can use the buttons in the middle to change the association. If you do not find the required LDAP/SAML group in the list you can create it manually.

The admin user can create/delete LDAP/SAML groups established inside RapidMiner Server by opening the group management screen and selecting theManage LDAP/SAML groupsaction on the right side.
