You can do whatever you can code.

I suspect a datasource would be easier, depending on what information you are trying to get out of LDAP.

I would probably try to create a group or role that uses that LDAP data and access that in a datasource.

thanks Nipper,

once we create group for the approver from LDAP, also we can send mail to the group from the worklfow right ?

thanks

Assuming you can write the code to do that. Groups don't have email addresses (though that would be a very good addition to the product). The OOTB user review step includes sending an email to the author. You cannot use that. You can write your own that sends email to an alias before a group task.

Thanks nipper,

for the time being I for demo, I just wanted to go with the OOTB datasource "TSUserPicker" .

I did:

in datasourceconfig.xml file I gave proper servername and serviceBaseURL in the param.

and run make_toolkit.ipl file and did reset as well.

But in WFM reveiw task I am not able to get "TSUserPicker" when I go to availiable users and select DS variable.

Please let me know what can be the issue.

thanks
