Simplify Integrations

Utilize Illuminate to simplify the process of integrating all your campus systems by deploying an iPaaS custom built for the needs of Higher Education. Connecting any system to your SIS, LMS or SSO environment can now be done with a few clicks of the mouse. Defined APIs can be deployed and reused for every integration with any required customizations without ever once writing a single line of code.

Leverage an API Library

Illuminate comes deployed with over 120 prebuilt APIs for accessing common data from most major Student Information Systems, Learning Management Systems or Single Sign-On applications. Individual system customizations can be applied via a user friendly web interface to deliver the right data to the right application at the right time without ever having to change the underlying deployed API.

Improve Visibility

Illuminate elevates integration management from a single application burden to an institutional expertise. Centralize all integrations in one platform to empower your IT staff to instantly see which systems or partners are accessing which data in real‑time, provide single button click to authorize each system, API or data field and track each transaction for ease of troubleshooting and security review.

Instant Web Services

Illuminate provides the ability to create a custom set of institutional specific APIs which can be composed and published as a web service in a matter of minutes. Each API can be completely customized including calling SQL queries, PL/SQL stored procedures or database events. Data can be delivered in any format required like JSON, XML or CSV in real-time or on a pre-defined schedule with simple configuration change.

Enhance Security

Illuminate revolutionizes your integration methodology by enhancing the security protocols around the flow of data in and out of your campus. Reduce firewall rules, decouple your most mission critical databases from their application servers and deliver data as a web service via the Illuminate Platform.

Okta and N2N Illuminate make it easy

Okta and N2N Illuminate make it easy to automate lifecycle management across student, faculty, and staff lifecycle events. N2N’s Illuminate is a gateway that pulls user data from a Student Information Systems (SIS) (like Ellucian’s Colleague and Banner, Oracle’s Peoplesoft, and more) and sends it to Okta’s Universal Directory (UD). Schools update user data on their information systems as roles change, and these changes are mirrored in UD, so access permissions automatically reflect each person’s evolving status. The integration enables campus IT teams to set rules for users and groups within UD so Okta can automatically assign apps and entitlements based on status. Campus student information systems keep Okta’s UD up-to-date via a RESTful API, and Okta can then easily provision those campus users into all the relevant apps they need.
