This article provides an overview of the main native solutions to integrate Forma LMS with extenal applications through different authentication and data exchange solutions
API
The “Application Programming Interface” is a set of procedures that programmers can use to interoperate with the application by adding/editing/deleting data from another application (i.e. to update user accounts informations from an external HR software).
Forma LMS is provided with an extensive set of API that wiill help developers interact con almost any part of the application.
SSO
This solution allow users logged to another system to seamlessly log-in to Forma, whithout entering their password. SSO requires that a user with the same username is already present in Forma: the list of users must manually be pre-loaded in Forma, or synchronized via API or I/O task
The SSO can be activated and configured under
Main > Configuration > Settings > API & SSO
LDAP Authentication

Forma LMS provides native support for LDAP authentication. LDAP user syncronization is not natively supported.
