Gather Brex credentials

To configure the Brex connector, you need administrator permissions in Brex.

Navigate to the Brex admin console or API settings.

Create API credentials for C1:

Create a new API key or token named C1
Grant the required scopes or permissions
Copy the credentials and save them securely

Configure the Brex connector

Cloud-hosted
Self-hosted

Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by C1.

In C1, navigate to Integrations > Connectors and click Add connector.

Search for Brex and click Add.

Choose how to set up the new Brex connector:

Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app
Add the connector to a managed app
Create a new managed app

Set the owner for this connector.

Click Next.

Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

Enter the required configuration:

API Key: Your Brex API key

Click Save.

The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.

Done. Your Brex connector is now pulling access data into C1.

Follow these instructions to use the Brex connector, hosted and run in your own environment.When running in service mode on Kubernetes, a self-hosted connector maintains an ongoing connection with C1, automatically syncing and uploading data at regular intervals.

Step 1: Set up a new Brex connector

In C1, navigate to Integrations > Connectors > Add connector.

Search for Baton and click Add.

Choose how to set up the new Brex connector:

Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app
Add the connector to a managed app
Create a new managed app

Set the owner for this connector.

Click Next.

In the Settings area of the page, click Edit.

Click Rotate to generate a new Client ID and Secret.Carefully copy and save these credentials.

Step 2: Create Kubernetes configuration files

Create two Kubernetes manifest files for your Brex connector deployment:

Secrets configuration

# baton-brex-secrets.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: baton-brex-secrets
type: Opaque
stringData:
  # C1 credentials
  BATON_CLIENT_ID: <C1 client ID>
  BATON_CLIENT_SECRET: <C1 client secret>

  # Brex credentials
  # Add connector-specific credentials here

See the connector’s README or run --help to see all available configuration flags and environment variables.

Deployment configuration

# baton-brex.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: baton-brex
  labels:
    app: baton-brex
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: baton-brex
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: baton-brex
        baton: "true"
        baton-app: brex
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: baton-brex
        image: public.ecr.aws/conductorone/baton-brex:latest
        imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
        env:
        - name: BATON_HOST_ID
          value: baton-brex
        envFrom:
        - secretRef:
            name: baton-brex-secrets

Step 3: Deploy the connector

Create a namespace in which to run C1 connectors (if desired), then apply the secret config and deployment config files.

Check that the connector data uploaded correctly. In C1, click Applications. On the Managed apps tab, locate and click the name of the application you added the Brex connector to. Brex data should be found on the Entitlements and Accounts tabs.

Done. Your Brex connector is now pulling access data into C1.

All versions of this connector are available at dist.conductorone.com.
