Gather Rippling credentials

Each setup method requires you to pass in credentials generated in Rippling. Gather these credentials before you move on.

A user with the user permissions to view all users and teams in Rippling must perform this task.

Generate an API token

In Rippling, navigate to Company Settings > API Tokens.

Give the new token a name, such as “ConductorOne”, and set the token’s unique identifier and API version.

Configure the scopes for the API token, giving it the permission to view all Rippling users and teams.

Create the token, then carefully copy and save the token value.

That’s it! Next, move on to the connector configuration instructions.

Configure the Rippling connector

To complete this task, you’ll need:

The Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
Access to the set of Rippling credentials generated by following the instructions above

Cloud-hosted
Self-hosted

Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by ConductorOne.

In ConductorOne, navigate to Admin > Connectors and click Add connector.

Search for Rippling and click Add.

Choose how to set up the new Rippling connector:

Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with ConductorOne)
Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)
Create a new managed app

Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of ConductorOne users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.If you choose someone else, ConductorOne will notify the new connector owner by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

Click Next.

Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

Enter your token into the API token field.

Click Save.

The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.

That’s it! Your Rippling connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.

Follow these instructions to use the Rippling connector, hosted and run in your own environment.When running in service mode on Kubernetes, a self-hosted connector maintains an ongoing connection with ConductorOne, automatically syncing and uploading data at regular intervals. This data is immediately available in the ConductorOne UI for access reviews and access requests.

Step 1: Configure the Rippling connector

In ConductorOne, navigate to Connectors > Add connector.

Search for Baton and click Add.

Choose how to set up the new Rippling connector:

Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with ConductorOne)
Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)
Create a new managed app

Click Next.

In the Settings area of the page, click Edit.

Click Rotate to generate a new Client ID and Secret.Carefully copy and save these credentials. We’ll use them in Step 2.

Step 2: Create Kubernetes configuration files

Create two Kubernetes manifest files for your Rippling connector deployment:

Secrets configuration

# baton-rippling-secrets.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: baton-rippling-secrets
type: Opaque
stringData:
  # ConductorOne credentials
  BATON_CLIENT_ID: <ConductorOne client ID>
  BATON_CLIENT_SECRET: <ConductorOne client secret>
  
  # Rippling credentials
  BATON_API_TOKEN: <Rippling API token>

See the connector’s README or run --help to see all available configuration flags and environment variables.

Deployment configuration

# baton-rippling.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: baton-rippling
  labels:
    app: baton-rippling
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: baton-rippling
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: baton-rippling
        baton: true
        baton-app: rippling
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: baton-rippling
        image: ghcr.io/conductorone/baton-rippling:latest
        imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
        env:
        - name: BATON_HOST_ID
          value: baton-rippling
        envFrom:
        - secretRef:
            name: baton-rippling-secrets

Step 3: Deploy the connector

Create a namespace in which to run ConductorOne connectors (if desired), then apply the secret config and deployment config files.

Check that the connector data uploaded correctly. In ConductorOne, click Applications. On the Managed apps tab, locate and click the name of the application you added the Rippling connector to. Rippling data should be found on the Entitlements and Accounts tabs.

That’s it! Your Rippling connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.
