Use this api once you setup NELM source

Hello @shaffusailpoint ,

You can add accounts to your non employee source in ISC in two ways:

1. Using UI:  
go to Connection \> Source \> Non-employees source \> Accounts tabs,  
you can add single accounts or through a bulk import a CSV file,

1. Using API:  
You can also add account using API mentioned by @TJ21 :

> [create-non-employee-request | SailPoint Developer Community](https://developer.sailpoint.com/docs/api/v3/create-non-employee-request)

Also remember that each non-employee source can have a maximum of 20,000 accounts.

I won’t affect your existing AD accounts as you have directly to your AD(target source)

for that just make sure you have a correlation logic in place, it will correlate the ADD account with the identity.

For that make sure AD is configured with the Correlation logic to accomodate the correlation of the NELM User with Ad account

Hope this helps.
