Rename a SCIM resource

The System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) 1.1 protocol does not support changes that require the SCIM resource to be renamed, such as a MODDN operation. Instead, when a change is detected to an attribute value that is used as part of the SCIM ID attribute, PingDataSync handles it in one of the following ways:

  • Deletes the specified SCIM resource and then adds the new resource with the new SCIM ID.

  • Adds the new resource with the new SCIM ID and then deletes the old resource.

  • Skips the rename portion of the change. If renames are expected on the source endpoint, a careful set of destination-correlation attributes should be chosen so that the destination can still be found after it is renamed on the source.

Configure this by setting the rename-policy property of the SCIM sync destination.
