User Provisioning with SCIM

OpsHelm supports automatically provisioning and de-provisioning users with System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) with certain identity providers. See below for the list of identity providers for which SCIM is supported:

  • Okta
  • Azure AD (coming soon)

What is SCIM?​

SCIM stands for System for Cross-domain Identity Management. It is an open standard intended to simplify the management of user identities accross cloud-based applications and services. With SCIM, IT admins can automate the provisioning, management, and offboarding of user accounts across different applications - including OpsHelm.

How does it work?​

SCIM provides a standard schema for describing and representing users and groups as JSON objects. It also defines a set of CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, exposed through a RESTful API, for managing and manipulating those entities. This allows a service provider, such as OpsHelm, to integrate directly with an identity provider to manage user access in real-time. As a result, a user's access and permissions are always up to date.
