You can verify the configuration of the SCIM extension by navigating to a SCIM resource URL via the command line or through a browser window.

  • Run curl to verify that the SCIM extension is running. The -k (or --insecure) option is used to turn off curl's verification of the server certificate, since the example Directory Proxy Server is using a self-signed certificate. 
    $ curl -u "cn=Directory Manager:password" \
-k "https://localhost:8443/scim/ServiceProviderConfigs"

  • If the user ID is a valid DN (such as cn=Directory Manager), the SCIM extension authenticates by binding to the Directory Proxy Server as that user. If the user ID is not a valid DN, the SCIM extension searches for an entry with that uid value, and binds to the server as that user. To verify authentication to the server as the user with the uid of user.0, run the following command: 
    $ curl -u "user.0:password" \
  -k "https://localhost:8443/scim/ServiceProviderConfigs"
