Bitwarden Directory Connector

The Bitwarden Directory Connector is a a desktop application used to sync your Bitwarden enterprise organization to an existing directory of users and groups.

Supported directories:

• Active Directory
• Any other LDAP-based directory
• Azure Active Directory
• G Suite (Google)
• Okta

The application is written using Electron with Angular and installs on Windows, macOS, and Linux distributions.

Command-line Interface

A command-line interface tool is also available for the Bitwarden Directory Connector. The Directory Connector CLI (bwdc) is written with TypeScript and Node.js and can also be run on Windows, macOS, and Linux distributions.

CLI Documentation

The Bitwarden Directory Connector CLI is self-documented with --help content and examples for every command. You should start exploring the CLI by using the global --help option:

bwdc --help

This option will list all available commands that you can use with the Directory Connector CLI.

Additionally, you can run the --help option on a specific command to learn more about it:

bwdc test --help
bwdc config --help

Detailed Documentation

We provide detailed documentation and examples for using the Directory Connector CLI in our help center at https://bitwarden.com/help/directory-sync-cli/.

Build/Run

Requirements

• Node.js v18 (LTS)
• Windows users: To compile the native node modules used in the app you will need the Visual C++ toolset, available through the standard Visual Studio installer (recommended) or by installing windows-build-tools through npm. See more at Compiling native Addon modules.

Run the app

npm install
npm run reset # Only necessary if you have previously run the CLI app
npm run rebuild
npm run electron

Run the CLI

npm install
npm run reset # Only necessary if you have previously run the desktop app
npm run build:cli:watch

You can then run commands from the ./build-cli folder:

node ./build-cli/bwdc.js --help
