Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? No.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to be add an LDAP/AD identity source, handle filter option for groups. The identity provider would make a regular sync and keep the users locally but use authentication against of the LDAP/AD.

Describe alternatives you've considered No.

Additional context Many other tool has proper settings for it. I don't want to give you full implementation details. BTW I will seperatedly create another feature requst for SSO/OIDC.
