The Totara service connector is now available.

Totara is an enterprise Learning Management System (LMS) and talent development platform used by organisations to deliver employee training and manage compliance.

This integration keeps Totara in sync with Sense HR, using Sense as the source of truth. When people are added or updated in Sense, their Totara user accounts and job assignments can be created and kept up to date automatically.

Administrators can now add the Totara service connector from Sense Automate > Service Connectors.

The connector sends people data from Sense HR to Totara, helping keep employee learning records aligned with live workforce data.

Employee information does not need to be entered separately in both Sense and Totara, helping reduce duplicate admin and keeping records more consistent.

The integration can create or update Totara user accounts when employee details change in Sense HR.

It can keep account details, job assignments and reporting lines up to date, including details such as name, email, contact number, location, department, job title, start date, end date and manager where available.

Totara can stay aligned with employee changes in Sense, including new starters, profile updates and leavers.

When someone is synced for the first time, Sense looks for an existing Totara account using the employee’s email address.

If a match is found, the records are linked. If no match is found, a new Totara account is created.

Existing Totara accounts are not duplicated, and future updates are applied to the correct person.

The integration runs automatically when supported employee updates happen in Sense HR.

A manual Totara sync action is also available from the employee’s record when an update needs to be sent manually.

Teams can rely on background syncing for day-to-day updates, with the option to trigger a sync manually when needed.
