Lessonly setup

You'll do the setup in two places: Lessonly to generate the required values and the Glean Admin console to save them.

Requirements

Technical requirements

  • Access to a Lessonly or Seismic Learning cloud instance with API access enabled.
  • Access to the Glean Admin console.

Credential requirements

  • A Lessonly API token with access to Lessons, Paths, users, and groups.
  • Your Lessonly subdomain.

Permission requirements

  • The API token must be generated by a Lessonly administrator.
  • The administrator account should have access to all Lessons and Paths you want Glean to crawl.
  • User and group permissions should already be configured correctly in Lessonly so Glean can mirror them.

Step 1: Generate a Lessonly API token

  1. Sign in to Lessonly as an administrator.
  2. Follow Lessonly's API documentation to create an API token.
  3. Copy the token value — you will paste it into Glean later.

Step 2: Find your Lessonly subdomain

  1. Open your Lessonly instance URL.
  2. Identify the subdomain in the hostname.

For example, if your URL is https://glean.lessonly.com, your subdomain is glean.

Step 3: Enter the values in Glean

  1. In the Glean Admin console, go to Connectors and select Add connector.
  2. Select Lessonly.
  3. Enter a connector name.
  4. Paste the API token from step 1 into the API key field.
  5. Enter the subdomain from step 2 into the Subdomain field.
  6. Select Save.

What happens next

After you save the connector, Glean begins crawling the Lessons, Paths, and permission data that the connector can access. If your Lessonly environment uses a nonstandard domain or a rebranded Seismic Learning configuration, validate the connection carefully after setup.
