If you want to test binding to a server and mutating objects, you can stand up your own OpenLDAP instance to test:
docker run --rm --name openldap -p 1389:1389 \
--env LDAP_ADMIN_USERNAME=admin \
--env LDAP_ADMIN_PASSWORD=adminpassword \
--env LDAP_USERS=customuser,user01,user02 \
--env LDAP_PASSWORDS=custompassword,password1,password2 \
bitnami/openldap:latest
Then configure your n8n LDAP credentials:
