# Officient

Officient connects to Cakewalk with an access token from an app you register on Officient's Developers page; for the shared flow, see [Connecting an HRIS](/docs/platform-overview/connections-and-integrations/connecting-an-hris.md).

### ✅ Before You Start

* You need an Officient account with access to the **Developers** page: click your profile in the top right corner and check that **Developers** appears.

### 🛠 Connect

1. In Cakewalk, go to **Settings → Data Sources → Users** and select Officient.
2. In Officient, click your profile in the top right corner and go to **Developers**.
3. Click **Register a new App**, enter a name and press **Create app**.
4. Select **Edit Scopes** and add the scopes the connection flow prompts for. For each permission, enable read or write access as prompted. The connection flow shows the exact list.
5. Click **Generate access token** and select the longest possible expiration time.
6. Copy the generated token and paste it into the connection flow.

The first sync starts immediately. Sync details and cadence: [Connecting an HRIS](/docs/platform-overview/connections-and-integrations/connecting-an-hris.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.cakewalk.security/docs/platform-overview/connections-and-integrations/identity-sources/officient.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
