### LDAP
HedgeDoc can use an LDAP server to authenticate users. As HedgeDoc supports multiple LDAP servers, you first need to tell HedgeDoc the servers you want to configure (`HD_AUTH_LDAPS`), and then you need to provide a few variables for those LDAP servers depending on how you want to use them.
Each of those variables will contain the given name for this LDAP server. For example if you named your ldap server `MY_LDAP` all variables for this server will start with `HD_AUTH_LDAP_MY_LDAP`.
