DATA INTEGRATIONS

Data integrations with your systems of record enable use cases like these:

   automatically

 * Group learners by details in your HRIS, such as their title and department

 * Trigger courses automatically when a condition is matched from your HRIS data

 * Report on enrollment completions in your preferred LMS

Arist partners with Workato, a leading integration platform, to seamlessly
connect with your existing systems. This allows us to connect to hundreds of
applications with minimal configuration. To learn more see: How Arist Builds

INITIAL SETUP / AUTHORIZATION REQUIREMENTS

During onboarding, your Technical Solutions Engineer will work with your IT Team
to connect the required systems and test them, before rolling out into
production. Here are some common systems, along with likely credentials and
setup steps:

 * Authenticating with Workday
   [https://docs.workato.com/en/connectors/workday.html#connection-setup]

 * SAP SuccessFactors
