Add Your First IDP/HR Provider

Connect your first IDP/HR system with Opal to sync your organization's identities and attributes from a predefined source of truth. To learn more about how Opal interacts with the end system, see Connect Identity or HR Provider.

Opal currently supports integrations to:

• Okta
• Google
• Microsoft Entra ID
• Workday

Add a new IDP/HRIS integration

Under the Configuration section, go to Settings, then IDP & HR Integrations. Click + IDP/HRIS Connection on the top right.

Select your IDP/HRIS provider and click + Connect .

Use existing connection

If you previously set up a connection with your IDP/HRIS provider outside of the IDP/HRIS integration flow—e.g., a connection for managing entitlements—Opal shows you a dropdown selection of existing connections associated with the provider.

Add new connection

If this is the first time you are setting up a connection to the provider, you must create an App for the provider first. Opal will direct you to the connection set up page for the App.

Import attributes

After you connect to your IDP/HRIS provider, you can import attributes. Attributes can be imported as either:

• User Tags—custom attributes
• Opal System Attributes—such as the user's Name, Manager, or Position

User Tags (custom attributes) are linked to the IDP or HRIS provider they are imported from. You can view the source providers for imported user tags from the Inventory > Tags > Users page.
