SCIM

The System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) API allows instance or organization admins to manage users, groups, and custom roles in their W&B organization. SCIM groups map to W&B teams.

The SCIM API is accessible at <host-url>/scim/ and supports the /Users and /Groups endpoints with a subset of the fields found in the RC7643 protocol. It additionally includes the /Roles endpoints which are not part of the official SCIM schema. W&B adds the /Roles endpoints to support automated management of custom roles in W&B organizations.

info

SCIM API applies to all hosting options including Dedicated Cloud, Self-managed deployment and SaaS Cloud. In SaaS Cloud, the organization admin must configure the default organization in user settings to ensure that the SCIM API requests go to the right organization. The setting is available in the section SCIM API Organization.

Authentication

The SCIM API is accessible by instance or organization admins using basic authentication with their API key. With basic authentication, send the HTTP request with the Authorization header that contains the word Basic followed by a space and a base64-encoded string for username:password where password is your API key. For example, to authorize as demo:p@55w0rd, the header should be Authorization: Basic ZGVtbzpwQDU1dzByZA==.

User resource

The SCIM user resource maps to W&B users.
