Multiple DirectoriesIf the same username exists in more than one directory assigned to an application, Crowd treats these usernames as the same user. Crowd searches all the assigned directories for the user, and amalgamates the group and role memberships. For example, let's assume you have a user 'jsmith' who exists in both directories 'Customers' and 'Partners', and is a member of group 'G1' in 'Customers' and 'G2' in 'Partners'. Crowd will grant access to the user based on membership of both 'G1' and 'G2'. RELATED TOPICS
