[Support] get OU name when sync/import to DB

[hans0801]

Environment:

• LDAP Server Type: [e.g. ActiveDirectory]
• LdapRecord-Laravel Major Version: [v3]
• PHP Version: [8.0]

Hi @stevebauman ,

Here with me again 👯‍♂️ Just want to ask, is it possible if I need to get the OU name of the users that I sync into my DB? Because when I saw on the AD Users attribute details, there is no OU Name for those users.

Thanks in advance

Hey @hans0801!

Yes you can get the OU name from a user by using the Distinguished Name builder:

$user = User::findOrFail('cn=John,ou=Users,dc=local,dc=com');

$parentDn = $user->newDn($user->getParentDn());

// "Users"
$name = $parnetDn->name();

// "ou"
$attribute = $parnetDn->head();
