Many organisations store specific data about employees or clients in various HRM or CRM systems. As a result, data is maintained and managed in different locations across the organisation.
For instance, if you use an industry-specific application alongside our software, there’s no need to enter the same data twice. AFAS connectors ensure that both applications are linked in real time and can exchange data securely.
With AFAS Profit, you can create an App connector to set up an integration with your online academy. Read below to learn how to configure this app.
How do I link AFAS to Rakoo?
Step 1: Add a new app connector
Log in to AFAS Profit.
Navigate to “General”, then “Management”, and then “App connector”.
Click “New”.
Add a new App connector with the following settings:
Description: Rakoo
Automatically generate token: Yes
Create a new user group: Yes
Create a new user: Yes
Step 2: Add GetConnectors
Add a GetConnector to the app connector. See this article for instructions on how to do this.
Have the functional filtering take place within AFAS, not within Rakoo. Only employees who need to be added to Rakoo should end up in this GetConnector.
Make sure all required fields are available in the GetConnector (such as email, first name, last name, department, job title, termination date, manager ID or manager email).
In the App connectors wizard, click 'Next' to add GetConnectors.
Click 'Actions' and then 'Import' to load a GetConnector
Step 3: Generate token
Click “Finish”.
The generated token must be set up in Rakoo so that authorization can take place. To do this, share the following information with your Customer Success Manager.
The AFAS token (REST API token).
The AFAS member number (needed for connecting via connect.afas.nl).
The URL of the GET connector.
Step 4: Discuss mapping
Together with your Customer Success Manager, you will review the functional requirements – such as which data you want to make available within Rakoo or which target groups should have access to Rakoo. Once these are defined, you’ll receive a mapping overview from us. This overview shows which data fields we receive from the GetConnector and how we will link them to the data fields within Rakoo. Of course, the goal is to make only the necessary fields available. Any unnecessary fields can be removed from the GetConnector.
Contact your Customer Success Manager or Support. Support can be reached by email at support@rakoo.com or send us a message via the chat at support.rakoo.com.
