## What is SCIM?
3737

To help automate provisioning and deprovisioning, apps expose proprietary user and group APIs. User management in more than one app is a challenge because every app tries to perform the same actions. For example, creating or updating users, adding users to groups, or deprovisioning users. Yet, all these actions are implemented slightly differently by using different endpoint paths, different methods to specify user information, and a different schema to represent each element of information.

To address these challenges, the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) specification provides a common user schema to help users move into, out of, and around apps. SCIM is becoming the de facto standard for provisioning and, when used with federation standards like Security Assertions Markup Language (SAML) or OpenID Connect (OIDC), provides administrators an end-to-end standards-based solution for access management.

If you want to request a new application for provisioning, you can [request that your application be integrated with our app gallery](../manage-apps/v2-howto-app-gallery-listing.md). For a user provisioning request, we require the application to have a SCIM-compliant endpoint. Request that the application vendor follow the SCIM standard so we can onboard the app to our platform quickly.
