SCIM inbound provisioning endpoints
PingFederate supports system for cross-domain identity management (SCIM) inbound provisioning and provides four endpoints.
The four endpoints are:
-
/pf-scim/v1/Users -
/pf-scim/v1/Groups -
/pf-scim/v1/Schemas -
/pf-scim/v1/ServiceProviderConfigs
These endpoints are defined in the following SCIM 1.1 specifications:
Begin each endpoint with the fully-qualified server name and port number of your PingFederate server, for example: https://pingidentity.com:9031/pf-scim/v1/Users.
/pf-scim/v1/Users
The users endpoint is where client applications make HTTP requests to create, retrieve, update, and delete or deactivate users. This REST-based endpoint accepts POST, GET, PUT, and DELETE methods, as described in the following table.
|
HTTP requests must be made using either Basic or client-certificate application authentication. JSON is currently the only supported format for the HTTP message body. |
| HTTP method | Description | ||||||||||
