This article provides instructions on how to integrate Continuum Command to Lifecycle Manager.

Note: As you connect integrations, review which clients will sync into the platform.
Imported clients count toward your purchased account limit, and many integrations may sync all clients by default.
We will notify you when you are close to exceeding your client limit.
 

Who can use this feature?

  • ScalePad Hub Administrators
  • Users with Manage Sync Settings permissions in their ScalePad Hub account.
 

What you'll need:

  • Administrator credentials for Continuum Command
 

Following the steps based on your situation will ensure the successful integration of Continuum Command and Lifecycle Manager:

If you have an existing API key that was previously generated and stored in a secure way, then please jump straight to Add Continuum Command API key to Lifecycle Manager.

Integration steps in Continuum Command

Generate an API key for the first time

  1. Sign in to Continuum Command's ITSupport Portal

  2. Head to Admin Integration Reporting API

  3. Click Create API Key

Continuum Command only allows a single reporting API key to be used. Once the API key is generated, take note of the API key and store the API key in a secure location.


Regenerate an API key if the existing key is unknown

Since Continuum Command only allows a single reporting API key to be used, and if you've already connected Continuum Command to another tool, such as IT Glue, you can't create a new one without breaking the first.

In case you haven’t stored the previous API key in a secure location or you forget the Continuum Command API key, return to the API screen and click Regenerate. Any previously generated API key will be invalidated and you must update the Continuum Command API key in use in any previous systems.

  1. Sign in to Continuum Command's ITSupport Portal

  2. Head to Admin Integration Reporting API

  3. Click Create API Key

  4. From the API screen, click the Regenerate button to regenerate an API key.

Once you’ve regenerated the API key, document it securely, then update all integrations that were using it previously and then add it to Lifecycle Manager.

You should add the API key outside of business hours after confirming that no active integrations are syncing.
