Overview
Vanta integrates with Rollbar to sync account access data (who has access to Rollbar) on a recurring basis. This integration gives you centralized visibility into Rollbar so you can monitor who has access, identify accounts belonging to terminated personnel that still need to be deactivated, and streamline access review and request workflows, all from within Vanta.
Estimated setup time: Less than 10 minutes
How it works
Vanta connects to Rollbar to sync users and (where enabled) team membership data on a regular basis. This data powers three key workflows in Vanta:
Automated compliance tests - Vanta checks that Rollbar accounts are linked to employees and flags accounts that still appear to have access after personnel leave, so you can take action in Rollbar. (This integration is read-only—Vanta does not remove or deactivate Rollbar users.)
Access Reviews - Synced users (and, if available, team-based entitlements) are surfaced in Vanta’s Access Reviews so approvers can validate whether access is still appropriate, confirm least-privilege access, and provide evidence for audits.
Access Requests - Entitlements from Rollbar (derived from Rollbar teams, when available) are pulled into Vanta. Requesters can ask for specific access levels, approvers can review with context, and system admins can track provisioning.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, confirm you have:
A Vanta account with Administrator permissions
A Rollbar account with admin or owner access (required to create Account Access Tokens)
A Rollbar Account Access Token with read scope
Connect the integration
Step 1: Start in Vanta
In Vanta, go to Integrations.
Search for Rollbar and click View Details.
Click Connect.
Step 2: Create a Rollbar Account Access Token (read-only)
Log into your Rollbar Dashboard
Go to Settings.
Select Account Access Tokens option.
Click Create New Token to generate a new Account Access Token.
Give the token a name (for example, “Vanta–Rollbar Access”). Set the token scope to read (recommended). Additionally, you can assign a Token length if you want more security for your token. Finally, click Create token button to generate the token.
Copy the access token you just generated into Vanta’s Rollbar integration linking form.
Step 3: Paste the token into Vanta
Back in Vanta’s Rollbar connect modal, paste the token into Account Access Token.
Click Connect.
Vanta will validate the token before saving it. If validation succeeds, Vanta will begin syncing Rollbar accounts.
Capabilities
The Rollbar integration supports the following resources and workflows within Vanta:
Users — Vanta syncs Rollbar user accounts, including email and username. User data is used in Access Reviews, Access Requests, and Automated Tests.
Roles/Entitlements — Vanta syncs a user's Rollbar team memberships and maps them as roles on each user's account. For example, if a user belongs to the "Owners" and "Backend" teams in Rollbar, those team names appear as their entitlements in Vanta. This data is used in Access Reviews and Access Requests.
Vanta can also sync team membership and use it as roles/entitlements.
The Rollbar integration does not support the following resources:
Groups - Vanta does not sync a separate Groups resource (Rollbar’s teams are what Vanta uses for entitlement access context).
Last Login - This is not synced with Vanta.
Resource | Supported | Usage |
Users | ✅ | |
Teams | ✅(when enabled; shown as “Teams” on the account) | |
Groups | ❌ | Rollbar does not have a separate "groups" concept. Teams serve this function and are mapped as roles/entitlements (see below). |
Roles/Entitlements Note: Derived from Rollbar team memberships. Each user's teams appear as their roles in Vanta. | ✅ | |
Last Login | ❌ | Not available from the Rollbar API. |
Permissions
Read Access
Vanta connects to Rollbar using read-only access. Vanta does not make any changes in Rollbar
Vanta can access:
User data
Used to monitor which employees have Rollbar access and to identify accounts belonging to terminated personnel that have not yet been removed — so you can take action in Rollbar.
In Access Requests, this allows Vanta to display available users when tracking or assigning access.
User team membership data (mapped as roles/entitlement)
Rollbar organizes users into teams (e.g., "Owners," "Everyone," custom teams). Vanta syncs team names and maps them as roles/entitlements on each user's account in Vanta.
Used to validate least-privilege access and confirm that team-based access controls align with compliance requirements.
In Access Requests, this allows requesters to select from the correct set of team-based entitlements and enables approvers to review the level of access being requested.
Write access
None. Vanta does not write to Rollbar. The integration will never modify, create, or delete any users, teams, projects, or settings in your Rollbar environment.
Troubleshooting and FAQs
Q: Does Vanta automatically deprovision (remove or deactivate) users in Rollbar?
A: No. Vanta is read-only. It monitors and surfaces Rollbar account data so you can identify accounts that need to be removed, but the actual removal must be done directly in Rollbar or via your existing offboarding workflows.
Q: Why do Rollbar teams appear as "roles" in Vanta instead of "groups"?
A: Rollbar organizes access through teams (e.g., "Owners," "Everyone," custom teams). Vanta maps these team memberships to the roles/entitlements attribute on each user's account. There is no separate "groups" resource in this integration.
Q: Can I connect multiple Rollbar accounts to a single Vanta domain?
A: The current configuration does not support multiple connections. Each Vanta domain connects to one Rollbar account.
