Configure an AI-based connector in Factorial IT by setting up login instructions and defining interaction steps to automate user provisioning in applications without standard APIs.
AI-based connectors in Factorial IT allow you to automate user provisioning and deprovisioning in applications that do not support APIs or standard integration protocols. These connectors simulate user interactions with the application’s interface through a predefined set of actions.
This article explains how to configure an AI-based connector by setting up login instructions and defining steps for the AI agent.
Access the integration settings
- Sign in to the Factorial IT console
- Navigate to Identities & access → Apps catalog
- Select the application that uses an AI-based connector
- Open the Settings tab
You will see the configuration interface for AI-based actions such as login, listing users, creating users, or deleting users.
Set up the login sequence
- In the Login tab, locate the Setup section
- Enter the required fields:
-
Login URL: Provide the full URL of the application’s login page (e.g.,
https://app.example.com/sign-in). -
Email or Username: Enter the username or email that the AI should use. Reference this input as
{USERNAME}in your prompts. -
Password: Enter the password associated with the username. Reference this as
{PASSWORD}in your prompts. - These fields allow the AI to simulate a login using fixed credentials.
-
Login URL: Provide the full URL of the application’s login page (e.g.,
Define login steps for the AI
- In the Define steps section, describe the exact interaction the AI should perform
- Click Add step if the login flow requires multiple actions
Example:
Fill the form with the {USERNAME} and {PASSWORD} and click on the Sign In button
Each step should be concise and describe a single action.
Set a validation condition
- In the Success section, specify how the AI should determine that the login was successful.
- Use visible indicators such as:
- A specific URL
- A success message
- A unique dashboard element
Example:
You should see a dashboard with a welcome message
This validation helps ensure that the workflow has completed as expected.
Test the workflow
Once all steps are configured:
- Click Run to test the login sequence
- The AI will launch a simulated browser session and execute the defined prompts
- Observe the behavior and adjust the steps if needed
