- Authenticating your connection
  Before you can connect with Genetec ClearID™ to synchronize data or issue API commands, you must first authenticate your applications (or API environment) so that your applications or API can communicate with ClearID.
- Setting up data synchronization
  Setting up data synchronization in Genetec ClearID™ involves learning some concepts, configuring the synchronization solution for your identity data, and the webhook integration options that are relevant for your organization.
- Synchronizing identities using an API
  Use the Genetec ClearID™ API to code your own solutions to automate various functions in ClearID. The primary use for the REST API is synchronizing identities, however many other scenarios are also possible.
- Synchronizing identities using the SCIM integration
  To synchronize external system attributes from a supported identity provider into Genetec ClearID™ identity attributes, you can use the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) integration. These identity attributes can then be used in ClearID to assign people to roles and automate role-based access control.
- Synchronizing identities using One Identity
  Use the Genetec ClearID™ One Identity Synchronization Tool to synchronize external system attributes into Genetec ClearID™ identity attributes. These identity attributes in ClearID can then be used to assign people to roles and automate role-based access control.
- Synchronizing identities using LDAP
  Use the Genetec ClearID™ LDAP Synchronization Agent to synchronize Active Directory (AD) Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) attributes into Genetec ClearID™ identity attributes. These identity attributes in ClearID can then be used to assign people to roles and automate role-based access control.
