Forms user licenses seems to not be syncing correctly with LDS

asked on May 11, 2022 Show version history

I have several participant users that are unable to access their tasks because they are experiencing issues with access. Prompts along the lines of "you are not part of a group that has access to this form."

I have verified that they do have licenses on LDS and that Forms has been recently synced.

One thing I've noticed is that although users have a license on LDS and synced on forms, some of their License fields are set to "No" when it should be "Yes". (See attached images)

The only remedy so far has been to:

  1. remove a user completely from LDS
  2. sync Forms
  3. remove that user on forms
  4. add the user back on LDS
  5. finally sync again on Forms.

 

This will update the participants' license field on Forms to "Yes".

This happens with both Full (Named users on Forms?) and Educational licenses (participants on Forms?).

 

Is there something that I can do differently on my end to prevent this recurring issue?

When Laserfiche Forms is configured (previous to Forms 11 Update 2) you have to setup a group or groups from LFDS to give access to Forms. The error message you are seeing is saying that the user trying to log in is not in one of the groups that was configured. If you go to formserver/formsconfig#auth you will see which groups have been configured to allow access to Forms. Make sure the users have been added to one of the groups listed within LFDS.

I understand now.

I was assuming that preexisting users on LDS were perfectly configured but I see now that this one for example was missing a group.

Instead of removing and re-adding the user, I should have just been assigning it a group.

Thanks for the response Blake!
