Use SCIM for identity management with Adenin

In this article we'll guide you through how to set up SCIM with Azure Active Directory (also known as Microsoft Entra). Some connectors will require this setup and this will be pointed out in the respective docs articles for your connector. Setting this up may also be a more secure implementation which your organization may require for their use with Adenin's Enterprise plans.

The goal is that users can be added, deleted and modified using SCIM 2.0. You can then define groups within your Azure Directory and Adenin will sync those users.

1. Go to Microsoft Entra

Then select New application

2. Create your Adenin application

Then click on Create your own application

alt text

On the next screen we're going to name the application adenin SCIM and select Integrate any other application you don't find in the gallery (Non-gallery). If this screen suggests any applications, ignore those. Then select Create to continue.

This will take a few moments and at the end you'll see the overview page for your new application. Once there, click on 3. Provision User Accounts.

3. Set up sync to Adenin's platform

On the next screen set your Provisioning Mode to Automatic and then we're going to need to obtain the Tenant URL and Secret Token from the Adenin administration area.

Automatic provisioning

Go to https://app.adenin.com and then navigate to ⚙️ → Administration → Settings → Security. At the bottom of that page we'll find the SCIM section.

4. Start provisioning

Then return back to the Provisioning overview page in your adenin SCIM page. Click on Start provisioning.

alt text

Then go to Users and groups and Add user/group.

alt text

Most Entra users will need to manually select which users they want to provision. To do that click on None selected.

alt text

Select the users you want to sync and then click on Select.

alt text

Then click on Assign.

alt text

Your users will now show in the Users and groups list.

alt text

It may take up to 1 hour for the sync to occur and users to appear in Adenin's user list.
