User UID attribute	Name of the attribute that contains the user’s login name: For Active Directory: `sAMAccountName` For LDAP: `uid`
Custom search filter	This can be used to further constrain user search results. It can also be used to filter out non-user entries in LDAP that are present in the user directory.
Test LDAP search	Enter a user name and click Test Search to test searching for a user. This will query the LDAP directory for the given user. If found, it will display the number of records located. Note: Before continuing to configure LDAP, it’s highly recommended that this query returns successfully.
