F.4 - How to update the provision token

For security reasons and to ensure continuous provisioning, your provision token must be renewed once a year. This article explains how to proceed.

💡 Information

How do I know when to renew the provision token?
Timly notifies you when your provision token needs to be renewed.

Who receives provision token renewal notifications?
Notification e-mails are sent to the primary administrator of your Timly account.

When should the provision token be renewed?
Your provision token should be renewed before its expiration date; otherwise, the provisioning will be automatically interrupted. To help you anticipate this, notifications are sent at the following times:
- 2 months before the token’s expiration date
- 1 month before the token’s expiration date
- 10 days before the token’s expiration date

🚨 Important Information

- Only renew the token if you are able to immediately update it in Microsoft Entra ID. Otherwise, provisioning will be automatically stopped.
- If provisioning is activated for both Users and Persons, you have two enterprise applications configured in your Identity Provider. You need to replace the token in both applications (typically called: 1) “Timly” and 2) “Timly Person Provisioning”).
