The LDAP service provides operations for querying LDAP
directories. LDAP directories are generally used to store information
about the people, groups, and services in an organization.
For example, LDAP directories typically store information about
the business unit that a person belongs to, information that identifies
the person, and information about how to contact them, such as telephone
numbers and email addresses. A process can use the LDAP service
to query the details based on the user’s ID, and map the details
to a process variable in order to populate a form.
