# Retrieve User and Group Information

To retrieve security groups using OmniGroupServer, follow these steps.

To retrieve security groups

1. Open the OmniGroupServer configuration file.

2. In the `[Repositories]` section, create a repository to store the groups. For example:

       [Repositories]
       Number=1
       0=OneDrive

3. In the new section, configure a task to obtain the groups through the OneDrive Connector. You can use the following configuration parameters (for a complete list of configuration parameters, refer to the OmniGroupServer Reference).

   `GroupServerJobType` | The type of task to run. To retrieve group information through a connector, set this parameter to `Connector`. OmniGroupServer will send the `SynchronizeGroups` action to your OneDrive Connector.
   `ConnectorHost` | The host name or IP address of the machine that hosts the OneDrive Connector.
   `ConnectorPort` | The ACI port of the OneDrive Connector.
   `ConnectorTask` | The name of the fetch task in the connector's configuration file that contains the information and credentials required to obtain the group information from the OneDrive repository.

   For example:

       [OneDrive]
       GroupServerJobType=Connector
       ConnectorHost=10.0.0.1
       ConnectorPort=7036
       ConnectorTask=MyTask

4. (Optional) You can set further parameters to define the schedule for the task. You can set these parameters in the task section (to schedule only the current task), or in the `[Default]` section (to provide a default schedule for all OmniGroupServer tasks).

   `GroupServerStartTime` | The time when a task starts.
   `GroupServerRepeatSecs` | The number of seconds that elapse before OmniGroupServer repeats a task.

   For example:

       [OneDrive]
       GroupServerJobType=Connector
       ConnectorHost=10.0.0.1
       ConnectorPort=7036
       ConnectorTask=MyTask
       GroupServerStartTime=02:00
       GroupServerRepeatSecs=86400

5. Save and close the OmniGroupServer configuration file.

6. (Optional) After you have configured the connector and OmniGroupServer, you can start retrieving the user and group information immediately by sending the `StartJob` action to OmniGroupServer:

       http://12.3.4.56:3057/action=StartJob&Repository=OneDrive
