Before you can use any Orchestrator plugins in vRA, you need to define them as endpoints. In this recipe, we will show you how to do this. This is not how to add an Orchestrator as an Infrastructure endpoint (for this see the Adding Orchestrator as an Infrastructure Endpoint recipe in this chapter).
For this recipe, you will need a working and configured vRealize Automation installation. Please refer to the introduction to this chapter.
You can either use the vRA-integrated Orchestrator or an external Orchestrator.
In this example, we will add an Active Directory endpoint. Please note that, if you want to add users or change passwords, you will need to enable SSL for AD (refer to the recipe Working with Active Directory in Chapter 10, Built-in Plugins).
