WSO2 Identity Server: Automatically adding users to roles on sign-up

Question

I'm working on upgrading from WSO2 Identity Server 4.1.0 to 4.5.0 and I've found that new users are now added to an internal/identity group instead of the in LDAP identity group that they were being added to formerly.

In particular I would like to add new users to the LDAP group (I've got a lot of things that expect and need accounts to be in that group). But it brings up another question, is there anyway to define groups / roles that a new user automatically gets added to during sign-up?

Answer 1

Users who are signing up would be added in to a Internal/identity role by default in 4.5.0. This internal role is created in the internal databases. Basically the user management database which has been defined in user-mgt.xml file.(UM_HYBRID_ROLE table). This is because, This role is created pragmatically, therefore is not good to create in the actual user store. I guess WSo2 Identity Server has not way to configure this role name and configure where it must be retrieved. I saw this as some limitation.
