KNOWLEDGE BASE

GLPI’s knowledge base serves to centralize internal knowledge and provide users with information (public FAQ) allowing them to solve simple problems on their own.

And we can search any documents or file using specific word.

As we configured the LDAP using this feature we can import new users.

Go to :

Home > Administration > Users > LDAP directories > Import new users

we can import new users from there, if user exits in our user list that will not to be imported.

You can also Search users by name.

Or manually add new user.
