How to Invite a Partner to Your Entity

Learn how to add a partner to your entity in this step by step guide

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Partners can include individuals from third-party administrators (TPA), consulting firms, and other organizations seeking access to data on behalf of a covered entity. Add partners to one or more of your entities to allow them secure access to that entity's data through Beacon's API and SDKs.

Prerequisites

  • You must have the appropriate permissions to invite a Partner:

    • Admins can invite Partners

  • You must have an Access Token, provided to you by your Partner

  • The entity to which you are inviting them must already be registered in Beacon

Steps

Follow these steps to invite a Partner to your covered entity:

  1. Navigate to the Entities module

  2. Click Invite New Partner

  3. Enter the Access Token provided to you by your Partner, which grants them access to your entity's data

  4. Assign Partner permissions based on their requested level of access.

    1. Read: allows a Partner to view data for this covered entity, but cannot submit or edit data themselves

    2. Read/Write: allows a Partner to view and submit data for this covered entity using Beacon's API and SDKs

  5. Click Add Partner

Tip: Partners can use access tokens to connect with covered entities to access Beacon's API and SDKs. To learn more about how partners can get and share access tokens, check out Partner Access Tokens in Beacon.

Once added, the partner will appear under the Partners tab. From there, you can view all partners associated with the entity and revoke their access at any time.
