SCIM
To enable SCIM support, you first need to generate an API key for a Superuser. As a superuser, go to the user menu near the upper-right, and choose "Manage API keys." Click "Create New Token." Copy the token and paste that in as a "Bearer Token" on your SCIM client's configuration pages. Sometimes this means you may have to add the word "Bearer" with a space and then your API token. The full authorization header should look something like:
The SCIM client will be able to create users from your directory, and FixedAsset Pro will try to map every field it can to the appropriate field within FixedAsset Pro.
The FixedAsset Pro SCIM URL’s will start with https://your_servername/scim/v2/ - in most SCIM providers, you need to just place that prefix of https://your_servername/scim/v2 and the SCIM protocol will handle the rest for you.
❗️FixedAsset Pro can only sync Users, not GroupsFixedAsset Pro only has built-in mappings for Users, but not yet for the Groups section. FixedAsset Pro cannot sync Groups via SCIM at this time.
Fields that FixedAsset Pro Cannot Handle (yet)
displayName
Mobile Phone Number
Manager
Unsupported HTTP Verbs
DELETE
is not supported by the underlying library yet
🚧Azure SCIM and User DatabasesIf you restore from a backup, or regenerate your Users table somehow, you may need to delete your provisioning profile and re-create it. This is because Azure will "remember" your old user ID's and will refuse to "learn" the new ones. The only way to make it "forget" is to delete your provisioning profile and re-create it.

Environment Variables
In your .env
file, you can specify two new environment values that modify how FixedAsset Pro's SCIM server works.
SCIM_TRACE
When set to true
, all SCIM requests and responses will be logged to a scim.log
file in the storage/logs directory
false
SCIM_STANDARDS_COMPLIANCE
When set to true
, FixedAsset Pro tries to more closely follow the SCIM specifications. Definitely needed for OneLogin. When set to false
, FixedAsset Pro maintains its original behavior. (This seems to rarely need to be changed)
true
🚧SCIM support did not previously support changing email addresses via Azure and some other SCIM clients. Since v6.2, that has been fixed, but if you were depending on the previous behavior, you may get unexpected results.
Okta Notes
If you get an error message of "User Account is Inactive" when trying to synchronize the 'login enabled' checkbox, make sure to enable "Deactivate Users" in the "Provisioning Settings" within the App settings on Okta.
