tenfold V24:
The Future of IAM

Import Plugin

Import Plugin

The Import Plugin enables the seamless flow of HR data into tenfold, automating provisioning workflows.

What Does the Import Plugin Do?

The Import Plugin is used to import data and sync data from other IT systems, allowing tenfold to trigger workflows when it detects changes in outside systems โ€“ such as a new user being created in an HR platform.

Thanks to the Import Plugin, tenfold can automatically pull and integrate up-to-date information from different source systems. This reduces the risk of inconsistencies and removes the need to manually enter the same information twice across to systems.

By comparing newly imported data to the previous data set, tenfold detects changes such as new employees being added to the HR database. This allows tenfold to automatically trigger the necessary provisioning workflows without the need for IT intervention. The same applies to changes such as a user moving to a new department or leaving the organization.

With the Import Plugin, data flows seamlessly from source systems directly to tenfold, ensuring that access decisions are always based on up-to-date information. This eliminates tedious data entry and removes the risk of admins not being informed of workforce changes.

Flexible Integration
