ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus Integration (Access Review)

Learn how to integrate ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus with Sprinto for Access Review to monitor user access, roles, account status, and MFA compliance.

Integrate ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus with Sprinto to automate access review evidence collection and monitor user access for compliance.

How It Works

Once connected, Sprinto uses Truto’s unified integration layer to fetch and standardise access review data from ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus.

Sprinto retrieves user information and continuously monitors access-related controls for compliance.

The integration helps you:

• Monitor user access to ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus

• Review roles and permission assignments

• Track account activity and status

• Validate MFA or 2FA enforcement

• Automate evidence collection for audits

• Account status (active or inactive)

• 2FA or MFA status

During OAuth authorisation, ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus grants the following scopes:

• SDPOnDemand.projects.READ
