Modifying a SCIM connection
This section assumes that the SCIM connector is created through which Synchronization Service can read the data. For more information, see Creating a SCIM connection.
To modify connection settings
- In the Synchronization Service Administration Console, open the Connections tab.
- Click Connection settings below the existing SCIM connection you want to modify.
- On the Connection Settings tab, click the Specify connection settings item to expand it and update the required settings.
For more information, see Creating a SCIM connection.
- When you are finished, click Save.
Additional authentication parameters
Allows you to configure the additional authentication parameters along with the parameters specified to authenticate and request from source system in the connection settings.
To create a connection with aditional authentication parameters
- In the Synchronization Service Administration Console, open the Connections tab.
-
Click Add Connection, and then use the following options:
- Click Next.
-
On the Add Connection page, provide the SCIM settings and Authentication parameters.
- Click Add additional parameters to provide additional authentication parameters, such as, region or organization ID.
- Provide the additional parameters in either Plain text parameters or Masked parameters field and click OK.
- Click Finish to create a SCIM connector with additional authentication parameter.

Configuring data synchronization with the Generic SCIM Connector
With the Generic SCIM Connector, you can configure inbound data synchronization connections for the following SCIM 2.0-based One Identity Starling Connect connectors:
NOTE: Consider the following when planning to configure a SCIM-based data synchronization connector:
-
While the Generic SCIM Connector may work with other SCIM 2.0-based Starling Connect connectors whose attribute query semantics are compatible on a network level with the SuccessFactors HR 8.0 and ServiceNow 2.0 connectors, One Identity tested it to work only with these two connectors.
-
To configure a connection to the PingOne or Workday HR connectors of Starling Connect, use the SCIM Connector of Active Roles Synchronization Service. For more information, see Configuring data synchronization with the SCIM Connector.
For the list of Active Roles Synchronization Service connector features that the Generic SCIM Connector supports or does not support, see the following table.
Table 119: Generic SCIM Connector – Supported features
Bidirectional synchronization
Specifies whether you can both read and write data in the connected data system. |
No |
Delta processing mode
Specifies whether the connection can process only the data that has changed in the connected data system since the last synchronization operation. This reduces the overall synchronization duration. |
No |
Password synchronization
Specifies whether you can synchronize user passwords from an Active Directory (AD) domain to the connected data system. |
No |
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) data encryption
Specifies whether the connector can use SSL to encrypt data transmitted between Active Roles Synchronization Service and the connected data system. |
Yes |
