Active directory attributes can be retrieved from the LDAP server using Business Rules. The rules use the 

Frevvoproduct
 _data.getParameter('subject.name of attribute) syntax to make the information availableto populate form controls with the Active Directory information. There are many attributes available in Active Directory. View  this website for a list. Multi value attributes are also supported. This feature works if you are using an LDAP or LDAP Container Security Manager configuration.

The business rule shown pulls the Email Address, First and Last Name of the logged in user and populates the respective form fields.

Frevvoproduct
 provides several built-in methods that can be used in a business rule to populate controls on your forms. The business rule shown fills the respective form fields with the First/Last Names and Email Address of the logged in user.
