Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[John Guy <>]

First I'm very grateful for the support from this group especially from someone new to this line of work.  My background is Routing, Switching and UC.

Here's the response from RingCentral

1. Verify how the integration to glip would be done.  Is using their WS API the best way?  Or can they read SAML or SCIM or something? **** Yes, our Glip Messaging REST API is the proper way to create teams*****
2. Get a service account that can call web services in your glip account (assuming WS)  ****
   1. Easily done by logging in to developer.ringcentral.com.******
3. Do a Java POC and see that you can list groups, list users, list memberships in a group, add/remove member, add/remove group ****
   1. I recommend using Postman or another REST API stubbing application to walkthrough the API calls - so you don't have to code them to test/validate****
4. Verify that you want all groups in glip managed by Grouper  ****
   1. This is a CUIT business process item. ***
5. Integrate the Java calls with a harness like our other integrations (e.g. box or duo or remedy)  *****
   1. That sounds like it makes sense but the language choice and integration is a CUIT decision.******
6. Run that as a change log consumer or unix process with messaging ****

1. This is a deeper Grouper question - for the SME on that platform.***

Hi Chris,

 

I'm not proficient in coding and was tasked to document the technical requirements in order to take a group of Users in Grouper to create a Glip team (similar to Slack)

 

If you have time can you provide some high level information such as Grouper will integrate directly with Glip or would we need to install middleware?

 

Thank you

John

Do you have resources to create the integration?  i.e. could you write some java methods interact with glip: that list groups in glip, list users in glip, list memberships of a group, add/remove member, add/remove group?

 

If you get that we can hook that up to a change log consumer and a scheduled full sync.

If you want to discuss over the phone please let me know.  Anyone else interested in this?

 

Thanks

 

Chris

Greetings

 

I'm searching for information on how to integrate Grouper to RingCentral GLIP.  RingCentral is our Cloud based UC provider.  RingCentral GLIP is equivalent to Slack.  Could you provide information on how to build an API between Grouper and RingCentral or possibly using a SCIM connector.  At this time I'm researching our options to provision a Grouper account in GLIP.

 

Thank you

John
