Trying to use the scim gateway as a "REST API" front-end about scimgateway HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi,

SCIM Gateway is a gateway between SCIM and whatever API your endpoints/applications are using.

Ref. figure in documentation

On the "left side" we have SCIM inbound and outbound. These SCIM requests are typically provided by you or the IdP you are using.

On the "right side" we have the plugins communicating with endpoints using whatever API is needed.

So, yes you need to use SCIM compliant request, and yes you get SCIM compliant response

In your example you need to create/customize a plugin that communicate with your REST endpoint ref. GET /api/users/bjensen

Thanks @jelhub for the prompt response! I'm glad SCIM gateway works as I expected.
I'm still not sure whether to use plugin-api or plugin-scim as a starting point. I'll look at the code examples and try get something working

from scimgateway.

Plugin-API use pure api-methods provided by SCIM Gateway
Meaning that gateway becomes an API Gateway and not a SCIM Gateway.

You should use some of the others

Use plugin-scim, but take a look at same methods in for example plugin-ldap/plugin-azure on how you could simplify attribute handling through endpointMapper

Thanks. I also noticed that plugin-api seems to be more about showing how the gateway could be altered to change behaviour. plugin-scim with plugin-loki seems to be a good place to start, and I will look at the code from the other plugins.
