Welcome to Sign In App! 🙂

You should have received a welcome email from Sign In App, with details of how to create your Sign In App account. Once this has been done, please follow the below steps to complete your integration.

Step 1: Link Groups to an Organisation 

From your Sign In App account head to Manage > Groups > Select Staff group > Integrations and from the dropdown select your organisation. You can link any repeat visitor group with your SICR account from here. If you’re a school trust you may see multiple organisations here, select the one relevant to the group in Sign In App.

Step 2: Enable profile type mapping 

Your Staff in Sign In App will automatically pull across to your Teaching Staff in SICR, but for other profile types, we need to map a Profile type in SICR to a group in SIA. 

To do this, head to SICR and then go to Settings > ADD-ONS > Sign In App > Profile Type Map. In this example we’ll set up the Contractors profile type, to do this click the Edit button next to the Contractors profile type. 

This will pop up a panel on the right side of the screen, we want to select Sign In App - Group ID from the first dropdown and then set the second to is equal to and finally select the group in Sign In App you’d like to map across to, in this case Contractors.  This will then map across all members of the Contractors group in Sign In App to the Contractors profile type in SICR. 

Please Note: If you don’t see the group you’re looking for under Sign In App - Group ID it’s likely that you haven’t set up the integration in SIA for that group. From SIA head to Manage > Groups > Select group > Integrations and select your organisation. Then go back to SICR and refresh the page, you should now see the group you’re looking for. 

Step 3: Populate SIA with your members from SICR

If you would like to integrate using Wonde, firstly please ensure all additional permissions have been approved in the Wonde portal. Next, from your SICR portal, go to Settings > Sign In App > Configuration > Field Mapping and set up the fields you’d like to map across.

 

Using the 2-way sync, from your SICR portal go to Settings > ADD-ONS > Sign In App and click the Import button. This will pull through the profiles from SIA based on the new Profile type mapping and will create the new profiles as duplicates in SICR.

Step 4: Merge any duplicates in SICR

Once the integration is complete, you may find that you have duplicate profiles appear on Sign In Central Record. To maintain the integration link, these profiles will need to be merged in bulk with your existing SCR profiles. Please see the below guide on how to do this:

Merging Profiles

Tip: You may notice that not all of your SIA-integrated profiles come over in the correct profile type. If this happens, when you merge the duplicates with your existing SICR profiles, ensure to select 'Preserve these values' on the correct profile type as below:
