Hi ,

I am using presto 2.7 with Mysql database. How do we need to connect to a LDAP server from the mashups?

LDAP server is from different location. I need to connect to the LDAP server and query the same to fetch some details only using MASHUP.

 

Please help me on this.

Thanks and Regards,

Kousik V R

Presto doesn't have any direct support for connecting to LDAP as a service (information source). Your best bet is to use the <script> statement in EMML with Java code to make the connection and do the query.

You can find information about using <script> in EMML for 2.7 at http://www.jackbe.com/prestodocs/v2.7.0/prestolibrary/index.html?href=PrestoLibrary.1.185.html .
