What's SCIM anyway?

SCIM stands for System for Cross-domain Identity Management, and it is a provisioning protocol. Provisioning is the action of managing a set of resources across different services, usually users and groups. SCIM is often used between Identity Providers and applications in completion of standards like OAuth2 and OpenID Connect. It allows users and groups creations, modifications and deletions to be synchronized between applications.
