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.

Using connectors installed remotely
In some cases, you need to configure a connection to an external data system which is separated by a firewall from the computer running Synchronization Service. To implement this scenario, you can install an instance of Synchronization Service and built-in connectors on a remote computer and switch this Synchronization Service instance in the remote mode. This will allow the Synchronization Service instance running in the local mode to communicate with the remotely installed instance and connectors via a single port.
Consider a scenario where you want to synchronize data between two Active Directory domains that are separated by a firewall. In this case, you can install one Synchronization Service instance in the local mode in the first domain, and then deploy another Synchronization Service instance in the remote mode in the other domain. Then, ensure the firewall allows traffic on the port used for communications between the Synchronization Service instances.
