Looker Cloud Integration

Looker Cloud Integration

Scimify enables SCIM provisioning for Looker Cloud, allowing you to sync users and groups using the Looker API3.

Overview

This integration pushes users and groups to Looker Cloud via SCIM using the Looker API3. Users and groups created in Looker will correspond to those from your identity provider.

Prerequisites

  • A Looker Cloud instance
  • Admin access to your Looker instance
  • Ability to create API3 keys

Configuration Steps

1. Create API3 Credentials in Looker

  1. Log into your Looker instance as an admin
  2. Navigate to Admin > Users > API3 Keys
  3. Click “New API3 Key”
  4. Give it a name (e.g., “Scimify Integration”)
  5. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret

Note: The API3 key needs permissions to manage users and groups. Ensure your Looker instance allows API3 access for user management.

2. Configure the Integration in Scimify

  1. Navigate to the Integrations page in your Scimify admin console
  2. Create a new Looker Cloud integration instance
  3. Enter the following configuration:
    • Looker Cloud Instance Name: Enter your instance name (e.g., “mycompany” for mycompany.cloud.looker.com)
    • Client ID: Paste the Client ID from Step 1
    • Client Secret (API Token): Paste the Client Secret from Step 1
    • Group Description (Optional): Custom description for created groups (default: “Created via Scimify for tenant {tenant_id}“)

3. Configure Okta SCIM

Follow the Okta SCIM Configuration guide to set up SCIM provisioning in Okta.

How It Works

  • When users and groups are pushed from your IdP, Scimify will create corresponding users and groups in Looker Cloud
  • User and group names will match those from your IdP
  • Users assigned to groups in your IdP will be added to the corresponding Looker groups

API3 Key Permissions

Ensure your API3 key has the following permissions:

  • Create users
  • Read users
  • Update users
  • Delete users
  • Create groups
  • Read groups
  • Update groups
  • Delete groups
