Confluence Using SCIM User And Group Provisioning For Onelogin


User Sync & Group Sync app provisions user and group information from OneLogin to Confluence. Users, groups and directory details can by provisioned using SCIM. SCIM provisioning works based on events performed on IDP. This way the administrator only needs to manage user accounts in OneLogin.
This reduces the administration time required to create users and groups in Confluence modules such as Confluence.
