Configure a connector

Tune your connector by adjusting what it syncs and how it reports errors.

Select which attributes a connector syncs

This task requires the Super Administrator or Application Administrator role in ConductorOne.

You can specify which attributes each connector syncs or ignores. This allows you to customize the information that is pulled into ConductorOne.

Navigate to Admin > Applications and select an application.
On the application’s details page, click … (more actions) and select Configure connector.
Click the Advanced tab. Here you can select which attributes to ignore or build a list of specific attributes to sync:

Sync everything: Leave All attributes (the default option) selected to pull in all available attributes.
Blocklist option: Select Ignore attributes and enter those attributes that you want ConductorOne to ignore when syncing. All attributes not specifically listed will be synced.
Allowlist option: Select Only sync attributes and enter those attributes that you want ConductorOne to sync. All attributes not specifically listed will be ignored.

Click Save.

That’s it! On the next sync, the connector will follow the attribute sync rules you’ve set up.

Connector sync pause

ConductorOne automatically pauses a connector’s sync cycle and alerts the connector owner if significant data anomalies are detected (for example, if the number of resources decreases by half between one sync and the next).

When a significant drop in resources is detected during a connector sync, ConductorOne does not immediately apply the change as a precaution against unintentionally removing access. A banner explaining that the sync has been paused is displayed. Click Confirm changes in the banner on the application’s page to let ConductorOne know that the change is expected and that it’s safe to proceed.

Turn off connector sync pause

This monitoring function is on by default, but you can disable it if necessary.

Navigate to Admin > Applications and select an application.
On the application’s details page, click … (more actions) and select Configure connector.
Click the Advanced tab. In the Monitoring section of the page, click to disable Pause sync when anomalies are detected.
Click Save.
