Active Directory Service Account

Amazon WorkSpaces requires Active Directory LDAP for deploying virtual desktops (vDesktops). An Active Directory Service Account is necessary for connecting with Active Directory. WorkSpaces Manager shares this dependency to interact with Active Directory. Depending on the permissions granted to WorkSpaces Manager within Active Directory, this Service Account may need different permissions on the assigned Organizational Unit (OU).

The Active Directory (AD) Service Account is also utilized to perform various actions, such as creating user accounts, adding or removing users from existing Active Directory groups, and deleting unused computer objects.
