Hi,

 

I ahve tried to add new users but am getting this error when I click on save.  If someone can advise what I need to do.

 

You must enable editing to add, remove, or edit users managed by a synced directory. To enable editing on a synced directory, go to Sync > Enable editing and perform the desired action. Note that any changes made manually to users of a synced directory will be overwritten upon the next sync cycle if not aligned with the information being passed from the directory.

 

Thanks

Louise

Hi @LoulouGIS24,

 

Thanks for reaching out. It looks like you're encountering an issue with adding new users due to the directory being managed externally. Follow these steps to resolve it:

Verify Directory Management Configuration: Confirm that the new users being added belongs to an Active Directory (AD) group synchronized with Adobe Admin Console. The error message appears when the user is missing from the AD group configured for syncing.

Add the User to the Correct AD Group: 
Identify the AD

Hi LoulouGIS24,

Thank you for reaching out. I can see two active Teams subscriptions associated with the Adobe ID you used to post your query. To assist you better, could you please share a screenshot of the error message you’re receiving when attempting to add a user?

In the meantime, here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

Use a Different Browser:

Attempt to add the user using a different browser to rule out browser-related issues.

Clear Browser Cache:

Clear the cache and cookies in your current browser and try again.

Check with Other Admins:

If there are other administrators for your account, ask them to try adding the user to determine if the issue is permissions-related.

 

If the issue persists, feel free to provide additional details, and we’ll help resolve this as quickly as possible.

 

Regards,


^AN

Hi there, 

 

Thanks for sharing the screenshot. According to the error message, you are using a sync tool to manage users. Please check the following help documents for help: User Sync Tool (UST)Azure syncand Google Federation. 

Meanwhile, I am reviewing the details and will reply soon.

Hi @LoulouGIS24,

 

Thanks for reaching out. It looks like you're encountering an issue with adding new users due to the directory being managed externally. Follow these steps to resolve it:

Verify Directory Management Configuration: Confirm that the new users being added belongs to an Active Directory (AD) group synchronized with Adobe Admin Console. The error message appears when the user is missing from the AD group configured for syncing.

Add the User to the Correct AD Group: 
Identify the AD group that syncs with the Admin Console.
Add the users to this group in Active Directory.
Wait for the next sync cycle (typically 45 minutes) for the user to appear in the Admin Console.

Check for sync errors in the Sync History section of the Admin Console to ensure the AD-to-Adobe sync process works correctly.

 

Please let us know if you require any further assistance.
