[Markzolotoy]

Is it possible to access Active Directory? Does it have to be on the Cloud?

Thanks

Hi @Markzolotoy 

1. Check whether the domain name you input is correct, you can get domain by inputting ipconfig in Command Prompt.

2. then click Get Data in desktop, choose Active Directory

Kindly note: Please disconnect VPN when doing the above operations.

I am trying to access Active Directory. I am providing the domain name in a form "doman.com" and my credentials. I am getting back this:

Does that mean that the domain is not on the cloud?

Thanks

Your AD domain doesn't necessarily have to end in ".com" - often companies use ".net"  for that. 

Run this command from your command line:

systeminfo | findstr /B /C:"Domain"

@lbendlin I think I got it all wrong. I have to be on the same network as the domain. A client is asking for some report with data from AD. I checked with him and he said they have a hibrid model - on-prem and Cloud. So, I thougt I would be able to access his domain over the Internet as long as I provide the correct credentials. Looks like that is not meant to work.

You would have to tunnel/VPN into their network for that.
