Introduction

_HelloID-Conn-Prov-Source-BCS-Motion (previously Centric-Motion) is a source connector. The purpose of this connector is to import persons and their contracts. The connector imports a set of CSV files that are generated by BCS and then transferred via SFTP to a fileserver on the local network. An agent server is required for this connector to work.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • HelloID Provisioning agent (on-prem).
  • Scheduled exports of person and contract data in CSV format from Motion.
    • The customer informs BCS that they want to integrate with Motion. BCS then knows which queries to use for this connector.
    • BCS schedules these queries and exports the results to the customer's cloud environment. The location where this is placed must be accessible via SFTP.
    • The customer ensures that these files are copied daily from the cloud location via SFTP to a file server accessible to HelloID.

Connection settings

As this connector is created for one implementation, it's possible these settings have to be changed.

Setting Description Mandatory
Motion CSV File Location The full path to the CSV files to import Yes
CSV Delimiter CSV delimiter Yes

Remarks

  • Preparation by BCS is required.
  • An SFTP connection to BCS has to be set up by the customer and a script needs to be created to download the data from BCS.
  • A local agent is required for this connector to run.

Mappings

A mapping export is provided. Make sure to further customize these accordingly.
