LinkedIn Sales Navigator

Trelica connects to LinkedIn Sales Navigator using SCIM.

The LinkedIn Sales Navigator SCIM interface is limited and does not currently support reading a list of users. Instead, Trelica will look for users already assigned to the app, and will try and fetch these from Sales Navigator. Once users have been matched Trelica can use the SCIM interface to initiate user management actions.

If Trelica has already discovered user app assignments for Sales Navigator from your your identity provider (IdP) we will use those to look up users in Sales Navigator. However, if Trelica has not been able to discover user app assignments you can manually export the user list from Sales Navigator and then imported into Trelica on the Users tab.

The SCIM interface also does not return usage metrics. Again, these can be manually exported from Sales Navigator and imported into Trelica.

Creating a SCIM token

  1. Sign in to Account Center.
  2. Select Settings > Global Settings > SCIM.
  3. Click + Add new SCIM configuration.
  4. Enter a configuration name (e.g. "Trelica"). If you enable auto-license assignment, you need to specify the Sales Navigator instance and the license type to assign. Licenses are assigned on a first come, first served basis.
  5. Click Generate token.
  6. Copy the access token from the Access token field.
If you have already generated a SCIM token for use in another identity provider such as Okta or Entra ID, then we recommend reusing the token for Trelica. If you refresh the token then you will need to update your identity provider with the new token.

Trelica will only read data by default, so it will not interfere if you already have an identity provider in charge of provisioning and deprovisioning.

If you don't have an identity provider managing users, then just select the Provisioning and Deprovisioning checkboxes when you connect from Trelica.

Provisioning and deprovisioning

  • SCIM automates the provisioning of the license, and not the activation. Users will need to activate their own license.
  • SalesNavigator licences are assigned based on rules defined in SalesNavigator.
  • If you have enabled or plan on enabling SCIM for LinkedIn Learning, you must use the same unique identifiers for Sales Navigator and LinkedIn Learning to represent users in SCIM.
