SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management)

What’s Coming

Support for System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) is coming to Harvey. SCIM integration will enable organizations to automatically provision, update, and de-provision users, roles, and groups directly from their existing Identity Providers (e.g., Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Google Workspace, and others). This automation eliminates the need for manual user management and helps ensure access stays current, compliant, and aligned with organizational policies.

By introducing SCIM, Harvey will meet a key enterprise expectation for secure, efficient identity management, reducing administrative burden while improving governance and access control.

• Role and group synchronization: Maintain accurate roles, permissions, and group memberships automatically.
