The generic Group Expansion Client component is configured as a pipeline stage. It is responsible for:
- receiving a group expansion request
- querying a group expansion server (such as a connector or LDAP Cache)
- taking the returned groups
- constructing a group expansion result message.
This component is typically used inside connectors that perform group expansion, and is sent the group expansion request by the Group Expansion Router in the Group Expansion Service.
