Twingate integration

ConductorOne provides identity governance and just-in-time provisioning for Twingate. Integrate your Twingate instance with ConductorOne to run user access reviews (UARs), enable just-in-time access requests, and automatically provision and deprovision access.

Availability

General availability. The Twingate integration is available to all ConductorOne users.

Capabilities

  • Sync user identities from Twingate to ConductorOne

  • Resources supported:

    • Groups
    • Roles
  • Provisioning supported:

    • Membership in locally created groups

Set up the Twingate integration

This task requires either the Integration Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne.

  1. In ConductorOne, open Admin and click Integrations > Twingate.

  2. If this is your first Twingate integration, the integration form opens automatically. Otherwise, click Add connector.

  3. Choose whether to add the new Twingate connector as a data source to an existing application (and select the app of your choice) or to create a new application.

    Do you SSO into Twingate using your identity provider (IdP)? If so, make sure to add the connector to the Twingate app that was created automatically when you integrated your IdP with ConductorOne, rather than creating a new app.

  1. Set the integration owner for this connector. You can manage the integration yourself, or choose someone else from the list of ConductorOne users. Setting multiple integration owners is allowed.

    A Twingate integration owner must have the following permissions:

    • Integration Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
    • Admin role in Twingate
  1. Click Create and add details.

Next steps

  • If you are the integration owner, proceed to Integrate your Twingate instance for instructions on integrating Twingate with ConductorOne.

  • If someone else is the integration owner, ConductorOne will notify them by email that their help is needed to complete the integration.

Integrate your Twingate instance

A user with the Integration Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne and Admin role in Twingate must perform this task.

Step 1: Generate a new API key

  1. Log into Twingate as an Admin user and click Settings.

  2. Click API.

  3. Click Generate Token. Give the API token a label, such as ConductorOne.

  4. Select the appropriate permission level for the API key:

    • Read only to run access reviews on your Twingate users.
    • Read & Write to provision group membership via ConductorOne and run access reviews.
  5. Click Generate. (Setting the Allowed Range is not required.)

  6. The new API key is generated for you. Click Copy.

Step 2: Add your Twingate credentials to ConductorOne

  1. In ConductorOne, open Admin and click Integrations > Twingate.

  2. In the list of connectors, locate and click on the name of the connector with the Not connected label.

  3. Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

  4. Paste the API key you generated in Step 1 into the API key field.

  5. In the Domain field, enter your Twingate domain.

    • For example, if your Twingate instance address is sampledomain.twingate.com, enter sampledomain in the Domain field.
  6. Click Save.

  7. 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 Twingate instance is now integrated with ConductorOne.

Configure the Twingate integration using Terraform

As an alternative to the integration process described above, you can use Terraform to configure the integration between Twingate and ConductorOne.

See the ConductorOne Twingate integration resource page in the ConductorOne Terraform registry for example usage and the full list of required and optional parameters.
