SCIM Admin Guide#

System for Cross-domain Identity Management, in short SCIM, is a specification that simplifies the exchange of user identity information across different domains. The Janssen Server provides an implementation for the SCIM specification.

Gluu Flex Admin UI allows administrators to view and manage the configuration of the Janssen SCIM server.

SCIM Use Cases#

Some common use cases for SCIM in enterprise environments include:

  • User Provisioning: Automatically creating and updating user accounts from identity sources like HR systems.
  • Group Synchronization: Managing group memberships across services to control access.
  • Self-Service Portals: Enabling users to update their own profile attributes.
  • Single Sign-On (SSO) Integration: Aligning SCIM data with identity federation protocols.

To build a production-grade integration with SCIM, it's critical to understand both the specification (RFC 7642–7644) and Janssen's implementation specifics.
