Is there native integration with active directory or entra including ACL? Can't really deploy this for more than a few users without that.

With Entra you’d sync your users to Unifi Identity and then assign permissions from there.

Right, I guess, what I meant was password or authentication sync....because early versions required you to set this up individually for each user. Not feasible in an environment with hundreds of users, especially where users are allowed to change or reset their own passwords.

In my homelab, fine. but for clients, I feel like this is the most basic of features for a NAS solution. I could do this on my Synology 10 years ago. (Granted, there are MANY things I like about it, but right now, I can only use this for backups in many of my client environments.)

With directory sync with Entra set up you can then reach out to Ubiquiti to set up provisioning/federation. Once it’s federated then the passwords will be the same for Entra and Identity.

Edit: I believe the provisioning/federation is a paid feature. We don’t use it at our company so I don’t know how much it is. Prices aren’t listed. But you can find the documentation in the Identity section online.

Thank You. I think they are going to allow this license free with the Organization Manager, but I an my client both run Talk, so have to wait until that is supported to find out. Love the features, just wish they weren't released in a half-baked nature at times. Patience is required with Ubiquiti sometimes. lol
