# GroupDN

The group object that the user must belong to. If the repository uses LDAP security, `GroupDN` specifies a group object that the user must belong to for authentication to be successful. Set `GroupDN` to the distinguished name (`dn`) for the group that the user must belong to. You can use GroupMemberAttribute to specify an attribute to check to determine whether the user is a member of the group.

You can override this parameter for individual actions by setting the GroupDN action parameter in the UserRead or Security action.
