Active Directory (AD) installation
To integrate Active Directory (AD) with the Nintex RPA server during a silent installation, you must configure specific parameters in the relevant files. These settings allow the system to connect with your AD environment, manage federation, and handle group management.
Make sure to add the following parameters in the config.json and secrets.json files, while adjusting any other environment-specific details. Once these parameters are correctly configured, save the files and continue with the remaining steps in the silent installation process.
