Parameters 

Parameter	Comments
api_token string	FlashArray API token for admin privileged user.
base_dn string	Sets the base of the Distinguished Name (DN) of the directory service groups. The base should consist of only Domain Components (DCs).

The base DN should specify DC= for each domain component and multiple DCs should be separated by commas.
bind_password string	Sets the password of the bind_user user name account.
bind_user string	Sets the user name that can be used to bind to and query the directory. For Active Directory, enter the username - often referred to as sAMAccountName or User Logon Name - of the account that is used to perform directory lookups. For OpenLDAP, enter the full DN of the user.
certificate string added in purestorage.flasharray 1.24.0	The certificate of the Certificate Authority (CA) that signed the certificates of the directory servers, which is used to validate the authenticity of the configured servers A valid signed certicate in PEM format (Base64 encoded) Includes the “—–BEGIN CERTIFICATE—–” and “—–END CERTIFICATE—–” lines Does not exceed 3000 characters in length
check_peer boolean added in purestorage.flasharray 1.24.0	Whether or not server authenticity is enforced when a certificate is provided Choices: `false` ← (default) `true`
disable_warnings boolean added in purestorage.flasharray 1.29.0	Disable insecure certificate warnings in debug logs Choices: `false` ← (default) `true`
dstype string	The type of directory service to work on Choices: `"management"` ← (default) `"data"`
enable boolean	Whether to enable or disable directory service support. Choices: `false` ← (default) `true`
fa_url string	FlashArray management IPv4 address or Hostname.
force_bind_password boolean added in purestorage.flasharray 1.14.0	Will force the bind password to be reset even if the bind user password is unchanged. If set to false and bind_user is unchanged the password will not be reset. Choices: `false` `true` ← (default)
state string	Create, delete or test directory service configuration Choices: `"absent"` `"present"` ← (default) `"test"`
uri list / elements=string	A list of up to 30 URIs of the directory servers. Each URI must include the scheme ldap:// or ldaps:// (for LDAP over SSL), a hostname, and a domain name or IP address. For example, ldap://ad.company.com configures the directory service with the hostname “ad” in the domain “company.com” while specifying the unencrypted LDAP protocol.
user_login string	User login attribute in the structure of the configured LDAP servers. Typically the attribute field that holds the users unique login name. Default value is sAMAccountName for Active Directory or uid for all other directory services
user_object string	Value of the object class for a management LDAP user. Defaults to User for Active Directory servers, posixAccount or shadowAccount for OpenLDAP servers dependent on the group type of the server, or person for all other directory servers.
