I've created and am using a SmartObject based on Active Directory Service2 -> AD User.  So far I've used several of the methods -  (e.g. GetUserDetails, GetUsersByGroup)  but have been unsuccessful in using the GetOrganizationalUnitUsers method.   I haven't been able to determine what the method is actually expecting as input (I've tried a number of different things, using ldap binding syntax as well as just specifying top-level OU names).     I'm using the SmartObjects Services Tester to do my experimenting.

Any clues as to what this method is actually expecting (or where I could find this information)?

Thanks in advance,

Diane

I have tried with just the top level OU name and it works fine.  e.g. if your OU is called "Finance", just put "Finance" into the input field.


However, I can't get it to work with nested OUs.  Maybe somebody who has further knowledge on this can give some input here on handling nested OUs.

You are right, it's definitely nested OU's that seem to be the problem.   Most of our OU's are nested so I just hadn't tried any that weren't.

I did a check and it currently only supports single level OUs. I have logged this as an enhancement request to support nested OUs.
