  2. Go to Settings.
  3. Click the User Management tab.
  4. Select the Staged for the Application / Directory Integrations option.
  5. Click Save.
  6. Go to USER AUTHENTICATION > SSO.
  7. From the Featured Applications section, hover over Personio and click configure new, or click (+), then scroll to or search for the application in the Configure New SSO Application panel. Select your desired app and click configure.
  8. Enter a name for the app in the Display Label field in the General Info tab (for example, “Personio Import”).

  10. Click activate.
  11. Click the Personio app from the list to reopen the configuration.

  13. Click manual import.

If you are importing less than one hundred users, your import results will display in real time and you can continue onboarding your users. If you have more than one hundred users being imported, JumpCloud will send you an email when your import is complete.

You can now grant users access to applications and connect users to all their JumpCloud resources. Learn more in the articles Authorize Users to an SSO Application and Connecting New Users to Resources.
