SCIM API

Preview

This feature is in Public Preview.

Databricks supports SCIM, or System for Cross-domain Identity Management, an open standard that allows you to automate user provisioning using a REST API and JSON. The Databricks SCIM API follows version 2.0 of the SCIM protocol.

Note

  • A Databricks administrator can invoke all SCIM API endpoints.
  • Non-admin users can invoke the Me Get endpoint, the Users Get endpoint to read user display names and IDs, and the Group Get endpoint to read group display names and IDs.

Call the SCIM API

In the examples, replace <databricks-instance> with the workspace URL of your Databricks deployment.

Resource URL 

https://<databricks-instance>/api/2.0/preview/scim/v2/<api-endpoint>

Header parameters

Parameter Type Description
Authorization (required) STRING

Set to Bearer <access-token>.

See Authentication using Databricks personal access tokens to learn how to generate tokens using the UI and Token API to learn how to generate tokens using the API.

Important! The Databricks admin user who generates this token should not be managed by your identity provider (IdP). A Databricks admin user who is managed by the IdP can be deprovisioned using the IdP, which would cause your SCIM provisioning integration to be disabled.
Content-Type (required for write operations) STRING Set to application/scim+json.
Accept (required for read operations) STRING Set to application/scim+json.
