Capabilities

The Seismic connector syncs the following resources:
ResourceSyncProvision
Users
Groups
Roles
Licenses
Content licenses (Business, Premium, Partner) are derived from the SCIM userType field on each user, not from a dedicated API endpoint. License assignment is read-only — license changes typically require admin action in the Seismic console. Users with userType="NonSeismic" (e.g. system or external accounts) hold no content license and receive no license grant.

Gather Seismic credentials

To configure the Seismic connector, you need System Administrator permissions in Seismic.
1
Go to the Seismic Developer Portal and log in with your admin account. Alternatively, navigate to System Settings > App Registration in the Seismic admin portal.
2
Click My Apps, then Create New App.
3
Fill in the app details (name, description) and select Client Credentials as the authentication flow. Seismic implements this as the Client Credentials with User Delegation flow — it is the only client-credentials variant Seismic documents.
4
Configure the Delegation user selected callback URL on your app. When a tenant admin enables the app and selects the delegated user, Seismic will POST a payload containing delegationUserId to this URL. Your system must store this value — the connector sends it on every token request.
5
Assign the following scopes to the app registration:
  • seismic.user.view — required for syncing users, groups, and group members
  • seismic.user.manage — required for provisioning (create/delete users, grant/revoke group membership and role assignments)
  • seismic.reporting — required for syncing platform roles
For sync-only deployments, assign seismic.user.view and seismic.reporting. For sync + provisioning deployments, assign all three scopes.
6
Save the app registration. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret and save them securely. The Client Secret is only shown once.
7
Have the tenant admin install/enable the app and select the delegated user. Capture the delegationUserId your callback receives — that exact value becomes the connector’s Seismic Delegation User ID configuration field.
8
Identify your Seismic tenant name (the subdomain from your login URL, e.g., acme if you access acme.seismic.com). The connector uses this to build the OAuth2 token endpoint URL automatically: https://auth.seismic.com/tenants/{tenant}/connect/token.

Configure the Seismic connector

Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by C1.
1
In C1, navigate to Integrations > Connectors and click Add connector.
2
Search for Seismic and click Add.
3
Choose how to set up the new Seismic connector:
  • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app
  • Add the connector to a managed app
  • Create a new managed app
4
Set the owner for this connector.
5
Click Next.
6
Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.
7
Enter the required configuration:
  • Seismic Client ID: OAuth2 Client ID from the app registration
  • Seismic Client Secret: OAuth2 Client Secret from the app registration
  • Seismic Tenant: Your Seismic tenant identifier (used to build the OAuth2 token endpoint URL https://auth.seismic.com/tenants/TENANT/connect/token)
  • Seismic Delegation User ID: the delegationUserId your app received on the Delegation user selected callback when the tenant admin assigned the delegated user
8
Click Save.
9
The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.
Done. Your Seismic connector is now pulling access data into C1.

All versions of this connector are available at dist.conductorone.com.
