Gather Rootly credentials
Configuring the connector requires you to pass in credentials generated in Rootly. Gather these credentials before you move on.
A user with permission to create API keys in Rootly must perform this task.
Create a Rootly API key
In Rootly, navigate to Organization Settings > API Keys.
Select the type of API key you want to create.
If you select a Personal API key, make sure the user creating the key has read permissions for Rootly users, teams, and schedules.
Click Generate New API Key.
Give the new key a name, such as “ConductorOne”, then click Create.
Carefully copy and save the API key.
That’s it! Next, move on to the connector configuration instructions.
Configure the Rootly connector
To complete this task, you’ll need:
- The Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
- Access to the set of Rootly credentials generated by following the instructions above
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 Rootly and click Add.
Don’t see the Rootly connector? Reach out to support@conductorone.com to add Rootly to your Connectors page.
Choose how to set up the new Rootly 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.
Paste the API key into the API key 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 Rootly connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.
Follow these instructions to use the Rootly 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: Set up a new Rootly connector
In ConductorOne, navigate to Connectors > Add connector.
Search for Baton and click Add.
Choose how to set up the new Rootly 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 Rootly connector deployment:
Secrets configuration
# baton-rootly-secrets.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: baton-rootly-secrets
type: Opaque
stringData:
# ConductorOne credentials
BATON_CLIENT_ID: <ConductorOne client ID>
BATON_CLIENT_SECRET: <ConductorOne client secret>
# Rootly credentials
BATON_API_KEY: <Rootly API key>
See the connector’s README or run --help
to see all available configuration flags and environment variables.
Deployment configuration
# baton-rootly.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: baton-rootly
labels:
app: baton-rootly
spec:
selector:
matchLabels:
app: baton-rootly
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: baton-rootly
baton: true
baton-app: rootly
spec:
containers:
- name: baton-rootly
image: ghcr.io/conductorone/baton-rootly:latest
imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
envFrom:
- secretRef:
name: baton-rootly-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 Rootly connector to. Rootly data should be found on the Entitlements and Accounts tabs.
That’s it! Your Rootly connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.
