Comment: Can we use weMethods built-in services to add/create/update/delete/search users, groups and computers in ldap active directory ? If yes, please share how to pass the payload to the ldap (AD).
*Detailed explanation of the problem: Need to know the capabilities of built-in services for Ldap operations. Can we add/update/delete users, groups and computers using these built-tin services like below?
pub.client.ldap:add
pub.client.ldap:bind
pub.client.ldap:cancelNotification
pub.client.ldap:compare
pub.client.ldap:delete
pub.client.ldap:modify
pub.client.ldap:registerNotification
pub.client.ldap:rename
pub.client.ldap:search
If yes, need some examples to add a group, add a computer and add a user. Kindly help.

Hi Chiranjeevi,
hopefully you have a MWS running for Monitoring purposes.
You can your LDAP directory as an additional directory service easily there.
Remember to setup “Central User Management” federation on IS then.
After that, you can use the WmCDS package to programmatically modify the entries in the directory.

The short answer is yes, those services should work well for that, provided the service account you use to bind has sufficient privileges to update your domain.
But this requires very specialized knowledge of both LDAP and AD. This page provides a good coverage of the details
The pub.client.ldap services do provide a useful abstraction, but for your specific requirements you probably won’t find examples. Having said that, you can usually find Java code examples on the web and convert those to the corresponding IS services. You will probably need to create some helper Java services as well, as AD often uses bitmasks for attribute values
I see inputs and examples already provided in SAG Guide
