We recommend against using GitLab LDAP integration if your LDAP users are allowed to change their 'mail', 'email' or 'userPrincipalName' attribute on the LDAP server.
If a user is deleted from the LDAP server, they will be blocked in GitLab as well.
Users will be immediately blocked from logging in. However, there is an LDAP check
cache time of one hour. The means users that are already logged in or are using Git
over SSH will still be able to access GitLab for up to one hour. Manually block
the user in the GitLab Admin area to immediately block all access.
## Configuring GitLab for LDAP integration
To enable GitLab LDAP integration you need to add your LDAP server settings in `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` or `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`.
