How to show LAPS password in Adaxes web portal

Question

We are in the process of implementing LAPS in our environment. Is there an option / way to get the password from the Adaxes web portal?

Hello,

As a solution, you can create a View User Web Interface action that will contain only the ms-Mcs-AdmPwd property on its form and will always show the value for the currently logged on user. For information on how to manage Web Interface actions, have a look at the following tutorial: https://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_WebInterfaceCustomization_ConfigureActionsPane.htm. Also, you will need to grant users the permissions to see the ms-Mcs-AdmPwd property value of their own accounts. For details, have a look at the following tutorial: https://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_SelfService_AllowUsersToModifySpecificPropertiesOfTheirAccounts.htm. On step 3 of the guide, select the checkbox in the Allow column for the Read ‘ms-Mcs-AdmPwd’ Property permission.

If that is not what you need, please, describe the desired behavior in all the possible details with live examples.

Hello Support Team,

I try to follow your information, but I am not able to give a security group permissions to read the 'ms-Mcs-AdmPwd' attribute as it is not shown up like other properties like seen in step 3 of the guide.

Could you point me in the right direction or tell me why I am not able to give permissions to this specific property (ms-Mcs-AdmPwd)?

I´d like to give different permissions for the LAPS attribute for different security groups.

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Please, make sure to select the Show all properties check box on step 3 of the provided tutorial to display all available properties. Also you can filter attributes by typing their names in the corresponding field.

Dear Support,

as shown in my screenshot the property is not found somehow. Can you support me why this is the case?

Thank you.

Hello,

Sorry for the confusion. The ms-Mcs-AdmPwd is a property of the Computer object. You need to select the Computer object type first and then find the required property.
