# LDAP authentication
To configure {abbr}`LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)` authentication in Odoo:
1. Open the Settings app, scroll down to the {guilabel}`Integrations` section, and enable
{guilabel}`LDAP Authentication`.
2. Click {guilabel}`Save`, then go back to the {guilabel}`Integrations` section and click
{guilabel}`LDAP Server`.
3. In the {guilabel}`Set up your LDAP Server` list, click {guilabel}`New`, then select the required
company in the dropdown list.
4. In the {guilabel}`Server information` section, enter the server's IP address and port in the
{guilabel}`LDAP server address` and {guilabel}`LDAP Server port` fields, respectively.
5. Enable {guilabel}`Use TLS` to request secure TLS/SSL encryption when connecting to the LDAP
server, providing the server has StartTLS enabled.
6. In the {guilabel}`Login information` section, enter the ID and password of the account used to
query the server in the {guilabel}`LDAP binddn` and {guilabel}`LDAP password` fields,
respectively. If the fields are left empty, the server will perform the query anonymously.
7. In the {guilabel}`Process parameter` section, enter:
- the LDAP server's name in the {guilabel}`LDAP base` field using LDAP format
(e.g., `dc=example,dc=com`);
- `uid=%s` in the {guilabel}`LDAP filter` field.
8. In the {guilabel}`User information` section:
- Enable {guilabel}`Create user` to create a user profile in Odoo the first time someone logs in
using LDAP;
- Select the {guilabel}`User template` to be used to create the new user profiles. If no template
is selected, the administrator's profile is used.
:::{note}
When using Microsoft Active Directory (AD) for LDAP authentication, if users experience login
issues despite using valid credentials, create a new system parameter to disable referral chasing
in the LDAP client:
> 1. {ref}`Activate the developer mode. <developer-mode>`
>
> 2. Go to {menuselection}`Settings --> Technical --> System Parameters` and click
> {guilabel}`New`.
>
> 3. Fill in the fields:
>
> - {guilabel}`Key`: `auth_ldap.disable_chase_ref`
> - {guilabel}`Value`: `True`
