Implementation Details

Edlink's support for OAuth 2.0 and OIDC ensures that integrating with HelloID is straightforward, allowing features like Single Sign-On (SSO) and token-based resource access.

Requirements for Integration

For successful integration between HelloID and Edlink, specific technical requirements must be met.

Prerequisites

  • A primary data source (SIS, LMS, or CSV upload) must be configured before HelloID integration.
    • HelloID is used exclusively for authentication, not roster data management.
  • Valid HelloID subscription with OAuth 2.0 and OIDC capabilities enabled.
  • HelloID users are required to have an email address associated with their account.

Data Alignment

  • Email Matching: User email addresses in HelloID must match those in your primary data source.
  • Identity Verification: HelloID handles user authentication while roster data comes from your primary source.

Implementation Notes

  • Authentication Only: HelloID serves as a secondary authentication layer.
  • Data Source Requirements: Primary roster data must come from another source.
  • Protocol Support: Integration relies on standard OAuth 2.0 and OIDC protocols.
