Seeding organizational users and groups
When human task flow components are created at design time, they are simply
mapped to logical or application roles. Upon deployment to the Human Workflow
Service Engine, you need to assign real human users to participate and act on
workflow tasks. During runtime, participants can act on tasks from the worklist
application, such as approve/reject a sales order, delegate approvals, provide
feedback on a help desk request, and so on. To engage real users, it is neces-
sary to integrate a directory service, maintaining your organization's users and
groups, such as an LDAP server, with the infrastructure running your compos-
ites.

embedded LDAP server as the default authentication provider. The following
screenshot shows the visual steps to change your default authentication pro-
vider in an existing security realm to an existing LDAP-based directory server:
The sequence of steps to plug your infrastructure with a directory service is de-
