Set up your first connector

Connectors bring account, entitlement, and activity data from your source systems into Mesh, where it is correlated against the identities from your IdP. Start with one high-value system — an HR system, a cloud directory, or an ITSM tool works well.

Choose a connector

Connectors are organized by source-system category:

  • Identity providers (already connected in step 1)
  • HR systems — authoritative worker data
  • ITSM — ticketing and access requests
  • Cloud & directory — cloud IAM and directory services
  • Endpoint — device and endpoint posture

Browse the Connectors & Integrations section to see what each connector collects and its prerequisites.

Steps

  1. In Admin → Connectors, choose Add connector and pick your source system.
  2. Provide the authentication the connector requires (API token, OAuth app, or service account). Follow the per-connector Authentication and Setup sections.
  3. Configure the collection scope and schedule.
  4. Save and run an initial collection.

Verify

  • The connector reports Connected and completes its first collection.
  • Accounts from the source system are correlated to identities and visible in the dashboard.
