Capabilities
The Seismic connector syncs the following resources:| Resource | Sync | Provision |
|---|---|---|
| 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
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.
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.
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.Assign the following scopes to the app registration:
seismic.user.view— required for syncing users, groups, and group membersseismic.user.manage— required for provisioning (create/delete users, grant/revoke group membership and role assignments)seismic.reporting— required for syncing platform roles
seismic.user.view and seismic.reporting.
For sync + provisioning deployments, assign all three scopes.Save the app registration. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret and
save them securely. The Client Secret is only shown once.
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.Configure the Seismic connector

- Self-hosted
Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by C1.Done. Your Seismic connector is now pulling access data into C1.
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
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
delegationUserIdyour app received on the Delegation user selected callback when the tenant admin assigned the delegated user
