Option 3: Sync Learners with Active Directory (AD)


For organisations with a large number of learners being frequently added and removed, syncing learner imports with our Active Directory Integration feature is a preferred option.


Steps:

Navigate to the Users section.

Click Add Users (top-right corner).

Select Sync Users.

  • Once you’ve connected to Microsoft Azure or Okta, you can sync your Active Directory (AD) to manage users.

👉 See the How to set up Microsoft AD Integration Guide.

New Learner Notifications


Once learners are added, they’ll receive two emails from noreply@mail.goldphish.com.

  • Learner Welcome Email: Sent to new learners, prompting them to set their password.

  • Training Campaign Welcome Email: Sent to learners when your first training campaign is launched.
