ICM is now providing support for System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM), which is an open standard protocol to automate the provisioning and deprovisioning of users. This framework allows exchange of user identity and user group information between identity providers (such as OKTA) and service providers (such as ICM – SaaS-based application). As a single system is used to manage permissions and groups, and data is transferred automatically, the risk of error is considerably reduced.

System for Cross Domain Identity Management (SCIM)

ICI is now providing support for System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM), which is an open standard protocol to automate the provisioning and deprovisioning of users. This framework allows exchange of user identity and user group information between identity providers (such as OKTA) and service providers (such as ICI – SaaS-based application). As a single system is used to manage permissions and groups, and data is transferred automatically, the risk of error is considerably reduced. This makes user management simpler and easier for customers. 

OKTA integrates various applications into its service, and you simply deploy these pre-integrated applications to your users as necessary. For example, OKTA uses the SCIM application to provision users or user groups in ICI.

To provision or deprovision ICI users, the OKTA Administrator first needs to create and configure an application which supports the SCIM protocol. 

Note: ICI only supports SCIM 2.0 version.

4. Search for a user in the search tab. For example, Morita Akemi.

5. Click Assign.

Note: As per the ICI SCIM implementation, when a user gets provisioned, ICI first verifies if the user is already present or not.
  • If the user is not present, ICI creates a new user.
  • If the user is present, but in the deprovisioned state, then ICI reprovisions the user only if the External identifier value in ICI is matching with the value of SCIM External identifier.

Provisioning users using group assignment

Group assignment in SCIM is a convenient way to get multiple assignments. Using SCIM Group, users are provisioned to ICI in one go. You can create User Groups in ICI using Add Group functionality of SCIM.

You can provision multiple users in ICI by using a group assignment provided they are already assigned and displayed in the Assignments tab.  

Note: Do not use the same group for Assignment and Push Groups.

To add already assigned members to a group SCIM to ICI group:

1. Click SCIM to ICI group.

2. Click Manage People.

7.10 SCIM 19.png

3. Search a user. For example, Michael Smith should already be provisioned in ICI through an individual or group assignment.

4. Click the Add icon.

5. Click Save. The user Michael Smith is added to the group SCIM to ICI group.

 

Mapping ICI attributes with SCIM attributes

To map ICI attributes with SCIM attributes, you must create the Client App Entity Mapping.

Client App Entity Mapping

1. Click the Configuration tile. The Configuration page opens.

2. Click the Masterdata tile. The Masterdata page opens.

3. Click the Create Masterdata tile. The Create Masterdata page opens.

The Create Masterdata page contains the following tabs:

a. Masterdata Details

b. Attributes

7.10 SCIM 21.png

a. Masterdata Details

1. Select the Category from the drop-down. For example, Default.

2. Select the Masterdata Contract Type.

Note: In order to map the SCIM attribute name with ICI attribute name, you must select Client App Entity Mapping from the drop-down.

3. Click Next. The Attributes page opens.

b. Attributes

7.10 SCIM 22.png

Provide relevant attribute values in the respective fields:

7.10 SCIM 23.PNG

Note:

  • It is mandatory to create the Client App Entity Mapping for the attribute ExternalUPN.
  • Repeat the steps under Client App Entity Mapping to map other attributes such as Phone Number from SCIM to ICI.

The Client App Entity Mapping created is displayed as shown in the screenshot below:

7.10 SCIM 24.PNG

The value of the SCIM attribute name (for example, userName) is mapped with ICI attribute name (for example, ExternalUPN) as shown in the screenshot below: 

7.10 SCIM 25.png
 
Note: To map attributes such as Organization Unit Id, Organization Path Id or SharedOrgPathId, apart from the Client App Entity Mapping masterdata, you must create the Org Path Mapping masterdata, and map with the Client Attribute Name specified in Client App Entity Mapping. The Org Path Mapping masterdata is used to map the value of the Client Attribute Name with the respective Organization using the Organization Unit Path value.

 

7.10 SCIM 45.PNG

In this example, the value of Client Attribute Name as shown in the above screenshot is mapped to the Org Path Mapping masterdata.

7.10 SCIM 46.png
 
In the above screenshot, name (for example, north) is the value of Client Attribute Name (for example, bCGHomeOfficeCode) in Client App Entity Mapping and Organization Unit Path is the org path.

Using the Client App Entity Mapping for attributes such as OrganizationUnitId, OrgPathId or SharedOrgPathId, the Org Path Mapping will be used to map the respective Org of a user.

 

Deprovisioning users

You can deprovision users in ICI using the Assignments tab.

Deprovisioning user from assignment

You can deprovision user either individually or by removing the user from the group which was used as assignment.

To deprovision an assigned user from SCIM:

1. Click the RTENOTITLE icon to unassign a user from OKTA. The Unassign User window opens.

2. Select the user to be unassigned from the displayed records. For example, Michael Smith.

7.10 SCIM 26.png

3. Click OK.

7.10 SCIM 27.png

The user Michael Smith is unassigned from SCIM to ICI and subsequently deprovisioned from ICI.

7.10 SCIM 28.png
 
Note: You can reprovision the user only in ICI only if the External identifier value in ICI is matching with the value of SCIM External identifier.

 

Creating User Groups in ICI using SCIM

To create user groups in ICI using SCIM, you must create the SCIM Groups Mapping masterdata.

The SCIM Groups Mapping masterdata is created to define the mapping before pushing the group from SCIM to ICI, for example, to push the Group SCIM Admins from SCIM to ICI as Local Admins. If the mapping is not present, the Group SCIM Admins will be created as Group SCIM Admins in ICI, and a masterdata record will also be created in SCIM Groups Mapping masterdata if the masterdata Contract Type is available.

Note: The SCIM Groups Mapping masterdata is optional.

SCIM Groups Mapping

1. Click the Configuration tile. The Configuration page opens.

2. Click the Masterdata tile. The Masterdata page opens.

3. Click the Create Masterdata tile. The Create Masterdata page opens.

The Create Masterdata page contains the following tabs:
