WHEN
For those customers where access to users and relationship isn't available in the Active Directory for PRONESTOR Planner, the data can come from any other data source if formatted in the JSON format defined below.
WHY
Some customers does not have all users and their group membership reflected in an MS Active Directory, but in another structure/system that holds the security principals of user and groups.
