Joomla SCIM User Provisioning For Joomla Extension

User Sync / User Provisioning / User Management

SCIM User Sync/provisioning plugin provides Automated user synchronization from the identity provider to Joomla.

SCIM User Provisioning provides SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management) capability to your Joomla site, converting it to a SCIM compliant endpoint that can be configured with any identity provider supporting SCIM protocol.

As in Identity Provider, we can add/create users, update users, and delete/deactivate users, they are added, updated, and removed/deleted/deactivated from the Joomla user in real-time. This means your Joomla User directory remains synchronized with Identity Providers.

The System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) (User Sync) is an open standard HTTP-based protocol for automating the exchange of user identity information between identity domains, or IT systems. SCIM aims to simplify user provisioning and management in the cloud. For example, as an Identity Provider add, update, and delete the user, they are added, updated, and removed from the Joomla User Profile. To achieve this functionality IDPs provide the User Provisioner with SCIM standards.

If your users are using both IDP (eg. Azure AD, OKTA, OneLogin, etc) and the Joomla website, it is preferred to have all users updated on the Joomla site without login each time to update the user list. miniOrange provides a solution that allows user provisioning or user sync into a Joomla website using SCIM standard.

To set up the user provisioning in your Identity Provider (IdP), use SCIM (User & Group Sync) endpoint from the plugin and configure the bearer token in your application. Users' feed synchronized will be from the Identity Provider to your Joomla site instantaneously or in time intervals set in your IDP.
Our SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management) Automated User Provisioning Add-On also allows provisioning with custom Providers. Our [SCIM User Provisioning](https://plugins.miniorange.com/joomla-scim-user-provisioning) (Auto Provisioning or User Sync) plugin works with any IDP that conforms to the SCIM standard.

WHY DO YOU NEED SCIM USER PROVISIONING OR USER SYNC JOOMLA PLUGIN?
If your team uses Okta, Azure AD, OneLogin, G-Suite, or Centrify for employee/user provisioning, you can use this integration to automatically keep your Joomla employee/User directory up to date. The SCIM (User and Group Sync) push-based system treats the IdP directory as your source of truth. When changes are made in IdP, they push immediately to Joomla, so you don’t have to worry about the Joomla employee/User directory being out of sync.

Note: You can manually create new employees or add employees from other locations while maintaining your directory sync. This feature is helpful for contractors, temps, or other people who may host visitors/receive deliveries but are not core team members.
