Active Directory Account Discovery Tool

The AD Account Discovery Tool allows System Administrators to select any or all service Accounts within a specific domain and import them to ALM, where they can be managed by associating them with Workflow Templates and assigning Owners.

Located under Administration > Account Discovery, the tool presents a simple four-step process for bringing AD service Accounts under ALM management.
