Business value

Partners and vendors can use a Microsoft framework to build third-party connectors for partner solutions that allow customers to import data into Microsoft Sustainability Manager.

Feature details

This framework and flow for Microsoft Sustainability Manager helps partners and vendors build third-party connectors to import data from partner solutions. This feature includes the template and complete documentation to help partners and vendors create third-party connectors for Microsoft Sustainability Manager.

Sustainability Manager provides several methods for data import, including a separate experience to import data from partners. We’re working with partners and vendors to build a robust catalog of prebuilt and custom connectors, and this feature provides the framework for partners and vendors to create these solutions.

To access new third-party connectors in Sustainability Manager, customers select the Partner Solutions tile under Data imports. They can then select the solution, enter their credentials, and then complete the guided steps to set up the import.
