Provisioning with SCIM

This feature replaces the provisioning of user profiles via Federated SSO with System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) API calls. Shifting from Federated SSO to SCIM involves changing from a trust-based authentication model to a standardized provisioning and deprovisioning model.

To enable provisioning of user profiles via SCIM API calls:

  1. From the Administration menu in the Customer Portal, click Account & Security Management.

    note

    The Administration menu is visible only to Administrators.

  2. Click Federated Single Sign-On. Federation details screen will be displayed. Alternatively, you can access these details on https://federation.equinix.com/.

  3. Select the Provisioning tab. This will be available if you have successfully setup federated connection, and login via federated authentication.

  4. Click on the toggle to turn on using SCIM API for provisioning user profiles. You will be prompted with a series of confirmations to turn on this feature. Turning on SCIM API management will turn off the Automatic Provisioning of user profiles via Federated SSO.

  5. Details such as Endpoint URL for provisioning user profiles via SCIM API will be displayed. You will need to generate tokens to access the API endpoint. A maximum of two tokens are allowed.

    Click Generate New Token.

  6. Token details will be displayed. Copy and save the token in a secure location. You will need the token in order access the API endpoint.

    note

    This is the only time this token details will be displayed. If you lose the token, you will need to delete an existing token and regenerate a new one.
