SAP BTP XSUAA SCIM Connector

The XSUAA SCIM Connector is designed to synchronize users and groups between SAP BTP XSUAA and EmpowerID, effectively managing roles and role collections. In the context of EmpowerID, groups in the XSUAA Authorization and Trust Management service correspond to role collections. This connector supports both inbound and outbound synchronization, adhering to the SCIM protocol for managing user and group schemas.

To enable access to the XSUAA API, you must configure an OAuth 2.0 client within the XSUAA service instance. This process involves enabling the API access plan for the service instance, allowing EmpowerID to securely interface with the XSUAA service.

Supported Functionality

The connector supports the following capabilities:

Inventory

• User Inventory: Synchronizes user data from XSUAA to EmpowerID, ensuring that all user information in XSUAA is reflected accurately in EmpowerID.

• Group Inventory: Synchronizes group (role collections) data from XSUAA to EmpowerID, allowing for effective role management.

• Group Membership: Synchronizes group membership data from XSUAA to EmpowerID, maintaining up-to-date user group associations.

CRUD (Outbound)

• User provisioning (Create): Enables user creation in XSUAA using EmpowerID’s provisioning policies and workflows. Ensure that attributes like Email, UserPrincipalName, and EmployeeType are correctly configured. The origin attribute must be set as part of the configuration parameters to route the user creation correctly.

• User Update: Allows updating user attributes in XSUAA using EmpowerID workflows, enabling real-time synchronization of user information.

• User de-provisioning (Delete): Manages user deletion in XSUAA through EmpowerID’s de-provisioning policies and workflows.

• User Enable/Disable: Supports enabling or disabling users by toggling the active flag in XSUAA, managed through EmpowerID workflows.

• Group Update: Allows updating group attributes in XSUAA (limited to the description attribute) using EmpowerID workflows.

• Group Membership: Facilitates adding or removing group memberships in XSUAA via EmpowerID policies and workflows, ensuring that role assignments remain consistent across systems.
