Testing the User Lookup

After setting the values you want to test against, the user test data must be saved using the ‘Save’ button at the bottom of the form. The reported messages will show the Strategy used, any found users, and any lookup checks for each of the found users.

The lookup will occur when saving if configuration is valid, but you can also run lookup again with the ‘Lookup Users’ button (Only available after saving configuration changes).
