Gather Percipio credentials
Each setup method requires you to pass in credentials generated in Percipio. Gather these credentials before you move on.
To set up the integration with ConductorOne, you’ll need:
Your Percipio organization UUID
The API bearer token associated with a Percipio service account
Please work with your Skillsoft Account Team to set up a service account for the ConductorOne integration and gather these credentials.
That’s it! Next, move on to the instructions for your chosen setup method.
Set up a Percipio cloud-hosted connector
To complete this task, you’ll need:
- The Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
- Access to the set of Percipio credentials generated by following the instructions above
In ConductorOne, click Connectors > Add connector.
Search for Percipio and click Add.
Choose how to set up the new Percipio 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.
In the Organization ID field, enter your Percipio organization UUID.
In the API Token field, enter the token associated with the Percipio service account set up for this integration.
Optional. In the Course IDs field, add the ID numbers of the courses you want to sync. If no course numbers are entered, ConductorOne will sync all available courses.
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 Percipio connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.
Set up a Percipio cloud-hosted connector using Terraform
As an alternative to the cloud-hosted setup process described above, you can use Terraform to configure the integration between Percipio and ConductorOne.
See the ConductorOne Percipio integration resource page in the ConductorOne Terraform registry for example usage and the full list of required and optional parameters.
Set up a Percipio self-hosted connector
To complete this task, you’ll need:
- The Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
- Access to the set of Percipio credentials generated by following the instructions above
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.
Why use Kubernetes? Kubernetes provides automated deployment, scaling, and management of your connectors. It ensures high availability and reliable operation of your connector services.
Step 1: Configure the Percipio connector
In ConductorOne, navigate to Connectors > Add connector.
Search for Baton and click Add.
Choose how to set up the new Percipio 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.
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 Percipio connector deployment:
Secrets configuration
# baton-percipio-secrets.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: baton-percipio-secrets
type: Opaque
stringData:
# ConductorOne credentials
BATON_CLIENT_ID: <ConductorOne client ID>
BATON_CLIENT_SECRET: <ConductorOne client secret>
# Percipio credentials
BATON_API_TOKEN: <Percipio API bearer token>
BATON_ORGANIZATION_ID: <Percipio organization ID>
BATON_LIMITED_COURSES: <Optional. Limit synced courses to the course IDs you specify here>
See the connector’s README or run
--help
to see all available configuration flags and environment variables.
Deployment configuration
# baton-percipio.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: baton-percipio
labels:
app: baton-percipio
spec:
selector:
matchLabels:
app: baton-percipio
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: baton-percipio
baton: true
baton-app: percipio
spec:
containers:
- name: baton-percipio
image: ghcr.io/conductorone/baton-percipio:latest
args: ["service"]
imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
envFrom:
- secretRef:
name: baton-percipio-secrets
Step 3: Deploy the connector
Create a namespace in which to run ConductorOne connectors (if desired):
kubectl create namespace baton-percipio
Apply the secret configuration:
kubectl -n baton-percipio apply -f baton-percipio-secrets.yaml
Apply the deployment:
kubectl -n baton-percipio apply -f baton-percipio.yaml
Step 4: Verify the deployment
Check that the deployment is running:
kubectl -n c1 get pods
View the connector logs:
kubectl -n c1 logs -l app=baton-${baton-percipio}
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 Percipio connector to. Percipio data should be found on the Entitlements and Accounts tabs.
That’s it! Your Percipio connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.
