CloudSSO:SetSCIMSynchronizationStatus

Last Updated:Aug 28, 2026

Enables or disables SCIM synchronization.

Operation description

SCIM synchronization must be enabled before you can synchronize users or groups from an external identity provider (IdP) that supports SCIM 2.0 to CloudSSO. If you disable SCIM synchronization, you can no longer synchronize users or groups to CloudSSO. Enabling or disabling SCIM synchronization has the following impacts:

  • When SCIM synchronization is enabled, you cannot modify or delete SCIM-synchronized users or groups, or change group membership. However, you can still modify user passwords and status.

  • When SCIM synchronization is disabled, you can modify or delete SCIM-synchronized users and groups, and change group membership.

The following example shows how to enable SCIM synchronization in the directory d-00fc2p61****.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.
