Why teams connect Adobe Sign and Ldap

Connect the tickets, records, and events in Adobe Sign to the systems engineering runs in Ldap, kept current in real time and in both directions.

Adobe Sign is where customer-facing and operational work happens: the tickets, conversations, contacts, and records a team touches every day. Ldap is where engineering runs the systems behind that work — the issue trackers, message brokers, directories, and monitors that keep services moving. The same items, people, and events matter to both, and when the only link between them is a manual hand-off or an overnight export, each side acts on a stale copy of what the other already knows.

Stacksync syncs Widgets, MegaSign, Users, Groups in Adobe Sign with Attributes, Operational attributes, Schema (subschema subentry), Entries in Ldap field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync maps the overlap, resolves conflicts by rules you set, and keeps every copy current, with no middleware to build and no API limits to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Provision and deactivate Users and Groups from an HR system or identity provider so Acrobat Sign membership and group placement track employee status.
  • 02 Stream the per-agreement Agreement Events audit trail into a compliance database for retention and who-signed-what reporting.
  • 03 Keep group member and uniqueMember attributes aligned with application entitlement tables so directory access reflects the right teams as they change.
  • 04 Two-way sync person and group entries between an LDAP directory (OpenLDAP or AD DS) and an HRIS or Postgres so joiners, movers, and leavers provision and deprovision automatically.

Common sync patterns

Where Ldap is the directory or identity source: one set of users

People and accounts in Adobe Sign stay matched to the users in Ldap, so access, provisioning, and org changes propagate instead of being keyed in twice.

Where Ldap watches operations: live volumes for visibility

Open items, throughput, and error counts from Adobe Sign replicate into Ldap, so the operational view reflects what is actually happening in the business.

One shared record across both systems

Where both systems keep records for the same contacts, items, or users, a correction in either updates the other, ending dual maintenance and keeping IDs aligned for every other flow.

What you can sync between Adobe Sign and Ldap

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Adobe Sign objects Ldap objects How this pairing syncs
MegaSign Bulk-send parent objects that fan one document out to many recipients; child agreements are tracked individually. Schema (subschema subentry) The objectClass and attribute-type definitions the server exposes; read to validate that written attributes exist and are single- or multi-valued as expected. MegaSign is specific to Adobe Sign and Schema (subschema subentry) to Ldap — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Account users; provisioned and updated two-way from an HR system or identity provider. Entries The fundamental unit of an LDAP directory, each addressed by a distinguished name (DN) and typed by its objectClass; synced two-way as records, with the DN driving upserts and attribute-level updates. Users is specific to Adobe Sign and Entries to Ldap — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Organizational groups that scope sharing and settings; synced from org structure or an IdP. Person entries (inetOrgPerson / user) People held under objectClasses such as inetOrgPerson, person, or Active Directory user; synced two-way to create accounts and update attributes like mail, cn, and telephoneNumber. Groups is specific to Adobe Sign and Person entries (inetOrgPerson / user) to Ldap — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Agreements The core e-signature transaction; created and sent from other systems, then read back for status (out-for-signature, signed, cancelled) and the completed PDF. Groups (groupOfNames / posixGroup) Group entries whose member or uniqueMember attributes list DNs; synced two-way to add and remove membership as teams and entitlements change. Agreements is specific to Adobe Sign and Groups (groupOfNames / posixGroup) to Ldap — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Agreement Form Field Data Merge fields prefilled at send and values captured from signers; read into a database so contract terms and inputs are queryable. Organizational units (ou) Container entries that structure the DIT and scope which subtree a sync reads or writes; used to limit a sync to a branch such as ou=People,dc=corp,dc=com. Agreement Form Field Data is specific to Adobe Sign and Organizational units (ou) to Ldap — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Agreement Events Per-agreement audit trail of every action (viewed, delegated, signed); read-only, synced into compliance stores. Attributes The typed name/value pairs on each entry (cn, mail, memberOf, objectClass); the schema defines which attributes each objectClass allows, and mappings are built per attribute. Agreement Events is specific to Adobe Sign and Attributes to Ldap — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adobe Sign and Ldap

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Adobe Sign Ldap Sub-second propagation

DetectionAdobe Sign notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (REST v6 webhook subscriptions) fire near-real-time on agreement events such as created, action requested, completed, and cancelled.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Ldap through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Ldap Adobe Sign Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Ldap for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No universal native change feed.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Adobe Sign through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Adobe Sign: Per-user throttling at minute, hour, and day tiers shared between web UI and API traffic; exceeding a tier returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Exponential backoff with jitter is recommended.
  • Ldap: LDAP defines no request quota; throughput is bounded by the server's sizelimit and timelimit administrative limits, connection and thread caps, and the CPU/IO it shares with live authentication traffic, so large syncs can contend with production lookups and must page results.

Ldap

Integration surface
LDAPv3 protocol (RFC 4511) over TCP, typically LDAPS on port 636 or StartTLS on 389; reaches any LDAPv3 directory server - OpenLDAP, Microsoft Active Directory, 389 Directory Server, Oracle Unified Directory, PingDS/ForgeRock, NetIQ eDirectory, Apache Directory.
Authentication
A bind DN and password (simple bind), typically over TLS, using a service account with rights to the target subtree. SASL mechanisms - GSSAPI/Kerberos, DIGEST-MD5, or EXTERNAL with a client certificate - are available where the server supports them.
Change detection
No universal native change feed. Incremental sync polls the modifyTimestamp operational attribute (or entryCSN / uSNChanged on servers that expose them) for entries changed since the last cursor; detecting deletes needs a server changelog or tombstones because a plain search cannot see removed entries. Some servers add Persistent Search or RFC 4533 content-sync (syncrepl), but that support is server-specific. No webhooks.

Rate limits
LDAP defines no request quota; throughput is bounded by the server's sizelimit and timelimit administrative limits, connection and thread caps, and the CPU/IO it shares with live authentication traffic, so large syncs can contend with production lookups and must page results.
