API notes for SCIM

SSO SCIM implementation is based on SCIM RFCs 7642 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7642), 7643 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7643), and 7644 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7644).

We only support a part of APIs & properties, please see the document below for details.

  • Some properties aren’t supported, we will ignore them if they are sent to us.

  • Some APIs aren’t supported:

    • For GET method: we will return HTTP 200 and an empty body

    • For POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE methods: we will return HTTP 400
