How the service works with SCIM

The cloud-based identity provider is configured with the URL of the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) interface made available by the cloud service.

1. User and group information in the identity provider are assigned to the cloud service integration.
2. Each change to a user or group on the identity provider is sent to the cloud service via Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS).
3. The uploaded data is stored in the cloud service, alongside any user and group data managed directly via the Security Portal.
4. The identity provider authenticates with the cloud service using a token generated in the portal and copied into the identity provider configuration.
