| Additional information | By default, SCIM search responses are authorized by generating multiple policy decision requests with the `retrieve` action, one for each member of the result set. The default mode enables policy reuse but might result in greater overall policy processing time.When you use this statement type, the current SCIM search result set is processed using an alternative authorization mode in which all search results are authorized by a single policy request that uses the `search-results` action. The policy request includes an object with a single `Resources` field, which is an array that consists of each matching SCIM resource. Statements that the policy result returns are applied iteratively against each matching SCIM resource, allowing for the modification or removal of individual search results.This statement type does not use a payload.For more information about SCIM search handling, see [About SCIM searches](../pingauthorize_server_administration_guide/paz_about_scim_searches.html). |
