C1 provides identity governance for npm. Integrate your npm organization with C1 for unified visibility and governance over who belongs to the organization, what role they hold, and which teams they are members of.

​
Capabilities

The connector syncs the members of a single npm organization as users, the organization itself as a group carrying the developer, admin, and owner role entitlements, and every team in the organization as a group carrying a member entitlement. Organization role assignments and team memberships are synced as grants.

​
Gather npm credentials

You must be an owner or admin of the npm organization you want to sync, and you need an npm access token with organization read access.
1
Sign in to npmjs.com as a user with owner or admin access to the target organization.
2
Go to Access Tokens in your account settings and create a Granular Access Token. Grant it read access and scope it to the organization you want to sync. (Granular access tokens are the supported token type; a classic automation token with organization access also works.)
3
Copy the generated token and note the organization name (the value after the @ in a scoped package name, e.g. my-org in @my-org/pkg).

​
Configure the npm connector

Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by C1.
1
In C1, navigate to Integrations > Connectors and click Add connector.
2
Search for npm and click Add.
3
Choose how to set up the new npm connector.
4
Set the owner for this connector.
5
Click Next.
6
Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.
7
Enter the npm credentials:
  • Access token: the npm access token you created.
  • Organization: the npm organization scope to sync (e.g. my-org).
8
Click Save.
9
The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.
Done. Your npm connector is now pulling access data into C1.
npm has no global, cross-organization user directory, so each connector instance syncs a single organization. To govern multiple npm organizations, add one connector per organization.
