- Click Block view
- On the Integrations page, scroll down to the Extended section for user integrations.
- Click NEW INTEGRATION.

Integration Overview
Before you start
More information is provided about the following fields to help you complete the integration:
Integration preferences: By default, the option Create & Update is selected, which allows for editing existing user records and adding new ones. If your goal is only to edit existing user records, choose Update Only. On the other hand, if you only want to add new records, select Create Only.
User selection: Select User only to create users in the People tab. Select User plus SaaS User to also create SaaS users in the Software > SaaS menu. Once your users are created in the SaaS menu, you can create SaaS user workflows to validate the existence of a given user in a SaaS System and to pull role information from your SaaS System. For steps see Creating SaaS user workflows.
When you select User plus SaaS User and you have multiple instances of the same SaaS, you can choose your SaaS instance from the dropdown. If you have a single instance of the SaaS, your instance is already detected by the system.
