Health check › Active Directory

People and groups sync

Check id ad.sync

What it checks

When Gate last copied people and groups from AD, whether it worked, and whether the regular sync is still running. Sync also disables Gate accounts for people who left the scope group.

What you might see

CheckNever synced.Gate has no people from AD yet.
ProblemLast sync failed 2 h ago: ...The note says why.
CheckLast sync 3 h ago, but it should run every 15 min.The background sync may have stopped.
OKSynced 4 min ago: 212 people (members of AI-Users).Fine.

How to fix it

  1. Fix the cause in the message (usually the LDAP or keys step above), then Identity → Active Directory → Sync now.
  2. If sync stays late, restart Gate (Services → Acutis Gate → Restart, or sudo docker compose restart gate).
  3. Safety: one sync never disables more than half the people at once, in case a group was emptied by mistake.

Command line

# Who should be in scope?
Get-ADGroupMember "AI-Users" -Recursive | Measure-Object
