Description

Unfortunately, I didn't find anything about it in the documentary. Is there already the possibility to connect Monica with an LDAP for user authentication and user groups?

Research direction
Explore existing authentication mechanisms in Monica (likely in app/Helpers/Auth or similar). Investigate how other PHP CRM projects implement LDAP (e.g., using ldap bind). Consider adding configuration options for LDAP server details and mapping LDAP attributes to user fields. Check if there are any open PRs or discussions about LDAP in the repository.
