SCIM EnterpriseUser APIs

    Overview

    This page contains all of the APIs for managing Users through SCIM EnterpriseUser requests.

    Create an EnterpriseUser

    This API is intended to be called by a SCIM Client and is used to create a new FusionAuth User.

    Request

    Create a User

    URI

    POST /api/scim/resource/v2/EnterpriseUsers

    The SCIM specification allows for customization of the schemas using extensions. Therefore, it is not possible to accurately document all the possible variations.

    The following is an example of a typical SCIM EnterpriseUser request body. However, your incoming request lambda must map these values the FusionAuth User. A default lambda is provided to handle a typical request that you may modify if necessary.

    This example is taken from RFC 7643 Section #4.3.

    Response

    The response for this API contains the User that was just created in SCIM schema format.

    Table 1. Response Codes
    Code Description

    200

    The request was successful. The response will contain a JSON body.

    400

    The request was invalid and/or malformed. The response will contain a SCIM Error JSON Object with the specific errors. This status will also be returned if a paid FusionAuth license is required and is not present.

    401

    You did not supply a valid JWT in your Authorization header. The response will be empty. Ensure you’ve correctly set up Entities and performed a Client Credentials grant.

    500

    There was an internal error. A stack trace is provided and logged in the FusionAuth log files. The response will be empty.

    503

    The search index is not available or encountered an exception so the request cannot be completed. The response will contain a JSON body.

    504

    One or more Webhook endpoints returned an invalid response or were unreachable. Based on the transaction configuration for this event your action cannot be completed. A stack trace is provided and logged in the FusionAuth log files.

    For FusionAuth SCIM endpoints, any error responses will be returned in standard SCIM schema. See more details in the SCIM API Overview.

    Example Response Body

    The SCIM specification allows for customization of the schemas using extensions. Therefore, it is not possible to accurately document all the possible variations.

    The following is an example of a typical SCIM EnterpriseUser response body. However, your incoming request lambda must map these values the FusionAuth User. A default lambda is provided to handle a typical response that you may modify if necessary.

    This example is taken from RFC 7643 Section #4.3.

    Delete an EnterpriseUser

    This API is used to hard delete a FusionAuth User. You must specify the Id of the User on the URI.

    The data of a User who has been hard deleted is permanently removed from FusionAuth. The User’s data cannot be restored via the FusionAuth API or the administrative user interface. If you need to restore the User’s data, you must retrieve it from a database backup.
