Using identity providers in Boomi Connect
Identity providers (IdPs) in Boomi Connect help automatically map user and AI tool access to enterprise permissions.
Boomi Connect automatically provides the Boomi IdP. Boomi supplies and manages this IdP, so you do not need to create or configure it. You cannot edit or delete it.
You can also configure external IdPs, such as Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Auth0, Ping Identity, and Google Workspace. Before you set up an external IdP in Boomi Connect, define the correct callback URI in your IdP app. For example, for the US platform instance, set your callback URI to https://us.bc.boomi.com/oauth/identityprovider/oauth/callback.
You still need the proper credentials and permissions to perform an action. Large language models (LLMs) do not respond if they lack access because of their role. Some connectors also let you enter API keys for service-level users to grant higher authority.
Boomi Connect supports any IdP that implements OpenID Connect (OIDC) and can issue a client ID and client secret. The following topics describe how to set up a few commonly used IdPs.
If you have not created an IdP, Boomi Connect prompts you to create one. Refer to the following topics for more information about using the Boomi IdP or setting up an external IdP:
