Add users

By adding users, you can customize access for everyone in your space. In Kisi, you have several options to do this.

1. Add users through SCIM
2. Import users through directories and/or 3rd party integrations
3. Import users in bulk through a CSV file
4. Add users manually

Add users through SCIM

As a Kisi organization owner, you can enable System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) provisioning and de-provisioning for your Kisi organization members. Kisi supports SCIM with several identity providers (IdPs) and directory services.

For instructions please refer to the following integration guides:

• Microsoft Entra ID
• JumpCloud
• Okta
• OneLogin

Import users through directories and/or 3rd party integrations

If don't yet have SSO set up, you can still import users from your directories by manually setting up the integration. Currently, we offer user import integrations with the following solutions:

• Microsoft Entra ID
• Google Workspace Directory
• JumpCloud Directory

Import users in bulk through a CSV file

If you don't want to import users via an integration, you can still upload them in bulk through a CSV file.

1. On your organization dashboard, click Users
2. Select the Import users tab
3. Download the linked CSV template and populate it with the users you’d like to import
4. On the same page, scroll down to the bottom and upload your file
