TOPdesk
TOPdesk is a leading IT Service Management (ITSM) solution that helps streamline ITIL processes, manage incidents, and improve overall organizational efficiency.
Effectively and efficiently managing IT services and processes is critical to ensuring the IT department functions well and meets the needs of end users within an organization. With the HelloID TOPdesk connector, organizations benefit from more efficient and effective management of their IT environment, saving time and costs while improving overall service delivery.
How HelloID Integrates with TOPdesk
HelloID works with TOPdesk to automate manual procedures in the user lifecycle management process. TOPdesk can be integrated with HelloID as a target connector. By processing every change in connected source systems, HelloID ensures that users' identity data, resources, and access remain up to date. HelloID supports various processes related to user lifecycle management, including:
Creating and updating person records
When a new employee joins, HelloID automatically creates a user account and a person record in TOPdesk. Any changes to personal data, such as phone number or address details, can also be updated automatically.
Automating ticket and change management
Thanks to the direct integration between TOPdesk and HelloID, you can automate common tickets and changes, such as resource management (issuing company assets), password management (password reset), or access management (granting authorizations). For changes, this is based on a TOPdesk template. Because HelloID integrates with various sources and systems, it can automatically create incidents in TOPdesk, process changes in the network, and subsequently close the tickets. All of these actions are logged for reporting and auditing purposes. It is also possible to link optional activities to changes and make them visible in the planner.
Data exchange between HelloID and TOPdesk occurs via the TOPdesk API. The data exchange can be tailored to the specific needs of an organization to ensure optimal collaboration between the two systems.

By automating key processes such as user lifecycle management, ticket and change management, and resource management, organizations can save time and costs while improving overall service delivery.
