Points de terminaison d’API REST pour SCIM

Utilisez l’API REST pour contrôler et gérer l’accès des membres de votre organisation GitHub avec SCIM.

Note: This operation allows you to provision access to an organization on GitHub Enterprise Cloud using SCIM. The operation is not available for use with Enterprise Managed Users. For more information about provisioning managed user accounts using SCIM, see "REST API endpoints for SCIM."

About SCIM

SCIM Provisioning for Organizations

These endpoints are used by SCIM-enabled Identity Providers (IdPs) to automate provisioning of GitHub Enterprise Cloud organization membership and are based on version 2.0 of the SCIM standard. IdPs should use the base URL https://api.github.com/scim/v2/organizations/{org}/ for GitHub Enterprise Cloud SCIM endpoints.

Notes:

  • These endpoints are only available for individual organizations that use GitHub Enterprise Cloud with SAML SSO enabled. For more information about SCIM, see "About SCIM for organizations." For more information about authorizing a token for a SAML SSO organization, see "Authenticating to the REST API."
  • These endpoints cannot be used with an enterprise account or with an organization with managed users.

Authentication

You must authenticate as an owner of a GitHub Enterprise Cloud organization to use these endpoints. The REST API expects an OAuth 2.0 Bearer token (for example, a GitHub App user access token) to be included in the Authorization header. If you use a personal access token (classic) for authentication, it must have the admin:org scope and you must also authorize it for use with your SAML SSO organization.

Mapping of SAML and SCIM data

The SAML IdP and the SCIM client must use matching NameID and userName values for each user. This allows a user authenticating through SAML to be linked to their provisioned SCIM identity.

Supported SCIM User attributes

NameTypeDescription
userNamestringThe username for the user.
name.givenNamestringThe first name of the user.
name.familyNamestringThe last name of the user.
emailsarrayList of user emails.
externalIdstringThis identifier is generated by the SAML provider, and is used as a unique ID by the SAML provider to match against a GitHub user. You can find the externalID for a user either at the SAML provider, or using the List SCIM provisioned identities endpoint and filtering on other known attributes, such as a user's GitHub username or email address.
idstringIdentifier generated by the GitHub SCIM endpoint.
activebooleanUsed to indicate whether the identity is active (true) or should be deprovisioned (false).

Note: These endpoints are case sensitive. For example, the first letter in the Users endpoint must be capitalized:

GET /scim/v2/organizations/{org}/Users/{scim_user_id}

List SCIM provisioned identities

Retrieves a paginated list of all provisioned organization members, including pending invitations. If you provide the filter parameter, the resources for all matching provisions members are returned.

When a user with a SAML-provisioned external identity leaves (or is removed from) an organization, the account's metadata is immediately removed. However, the returned list of user accounts might not always match the organization or enterprise member list you see on GitHub Enterprise Cloud. This can happen in certain cases where an external identity associated with an organization will not match an organization member:

  • When a user with a SCIM-provisioned external identity is removed from an organization, the account's metadata is preserved to allow the user to re-join the organization in the future.
  • When inviting a user to join an organization, you can expect to see their external identity in the results before they accept the invitation, or if the invitation is cancelled (or never accepted).
  • When a user is invited over SCIM, an external identity is created that matches with the invitee's email address. However, this identity is only linked to a user account when the user accepts the invitation by going through SAML SSO.

The returned list of external identities can include an entry for a null user. These are unlinked SAML identities that are created when a user goes through the following Single Sign-On (SSO) process but does not sign in to their GitHub Enterprise Cloud account after completing SSO:

  1. The user is granted access by the IdP and is not a member of the GitHub Enterprise Cloud organization.

  2. The user attempts to access the GitHub Enterprise Cloud organization and initiates the SAML SSO process, and is not currently signed in to their GitHub Enterprise Cloud account.

  3. After successfully authenticating with the SAML SSO IdP, the null external identity entry is created and the user is prompted to sign in to their GitHub Enterprise Cloud account:

    • If the user signs in, their GitHub Enterprise Cloud account is linked to this entry.
    • If the user does not sign in (or does not create a new account when prompted), they are not added to the GitHub Enterprise Cloud organization, and the external identity null entry remains in place.

Provision and invite a SCIM user

Provisions organization membership for a user, and sends an activation email to the email address. If the user was previously a member of the organization, the invitation will reinstate any former privileges that the user had. For more information about reinstating former members, see "Reinstating a former member of your organization."

Update a provisioned organization membership

Replaces an existing provisioned user's information. You must provide all the information required for the user as if you were provisioning them for the first time. Any existing user information that you don't provide will be removed. If you want to only update a specific attribute, use the Update an attribute for a SCIM user endpoint instead.

You must at least provide the required values for the user: userName, name, and emails.

Warning: Setting active: false removes the user from the organization, deletes the external identity, and deletes the associated {scim_user_id}.

Update an attribute for a SCIM user

Allows you to change a provisioned user's individual attributes. To change a user's values, you must provide a specific Operations JSON format that contains at least one of the add, remove, or replace operations. For examples and more information on the SCIM operations format, see the SCIM specification.

Note: Complicated SCIM path selectors that include filters are not supported. For example, a path selector defined as "path": "emails[type eq \"work\"]" will not work.

Warning: If you set active:false using the replace operation (as shown in the JSON example below), it removes the user from the organization, deletes the external identity, and deletes the associated :scim_user_id.

{
  "Operations":[{
    "op":"replace",
    "value":{
      "active":false
    }
  }]
}
