Saba Cloud LMS Integration Requirements

To use the Saba Cloud LMS connector with the Skillsoft Platform, as designed, you need to meet the following requirements.

If an item is marked with an asterisk (*), you must have it to integrate Saba Cloud LMS   with the Skillsoft Platform.

  • *An active Skillsoft contract for all your learners who will be using Skillsoft content

  • *Saba Cloud LMS   SaaS release 45 or later that has Automated Content Management (SFTP Capability). Confirm that Saba can receive SFTP imports

  • *A valid identifier for each learner that is configured consistently between the Skillsoft Platform and Saba Cloud LMS . Supported learner identifier values include:

    • Username: Unique username of the Saba Cloud person object (used to log into the system and identify the person)
    • Person_No: Person number as unique identifier for the Saba Cloud person object
    • Employee_ID/Profile_ID: The internal unique identifier assigned by Saba Cloud LMS to the person object
    • Email_ID: Primary email address for the Saba Cloud person object

  • *A SAML Identity Provider (IdP) that is able to supply user details including the identifier to the Skillsoft Platform, so learners can seamlessly access content in Percipio.

  • *Capability Confirmation Credentials for Skillsoft to connect to the Saba Cloud LMS SFTP location so that Skillsoft can deliver the files for the Automated Content Management function. Skillsoft can either send the files directly or to another location that you then move to the Saba Cloud LMS SFTP locations.

  • *Capability Confirmation Credentials and endpoint information so that Skillsoft can send learner activity and completion data to Saba Cloud LMS. Include xAPI /LRS detailsendpoint and any required authentication credentials.

  • Recommended: The same number of seat counts across all the Skillsoft content collections you licensed. We recommend this because all content from all Skillsoft collections is synchronized to one Saba Cloud LMS security domain and all learners who can see this security domain can see all the content.
