| description: Migrate from SCIM v1 Virtual Groups to Cloudflare’s GA SCIM User Groups | ||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| Cloudflare's first iteration of [SCIM integration](/scim/) introduced a concept called *Virtual Groups*, typically identified by the pattern `CF-<accountID>-<Role Name>` in your IdP. Virtual Groups were an early implementation of group-based access control: they acted as placeholders created automatically by SCIM to map IdP groups to account memberships. | ||
|
|
||
| While customers could add or remove members from these groups within their IdP, Virtual Groups had important limitations: | ||
| - They could not be renamed or deleted in the IdP. | ||
| - They could not be managed within Cloudflare. | ||
| - Functionally, managing a Virtual Group was equivalent to syncing users and editing each member’s policies individually. | ||
|
|
||
| With the GA of [User Groups](https://developers.cloudflare.com/changelog/2025-06-23-user-groups-ga/), Virtual Groups are now deprecated. Customers should migrate to [User Groups](/fundamentals/manage-members/user-groups/), which provide a more flexible and scalable way to assign and manage policies. To maintain SCIM synchronization with the Cloudflare Dashboard, we strongly recommend migrating to **SCIM User Groups**. | ||

|
||
| If you have never synced a group linked to a `CF-<accountID>-<Role Name>` Virtual Group from your IdP to Cloudflare, no action is needed. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Migration steps | ||
|
|
||
| 1. **Create a new SCIM integration** in your IdP using an [Account Owned Token](/scim/authentication/) provisioned in Cloudflare. | ||

||
| 2. **Assign users & groups to your new Application** in your IdP, following a naming convention that aligns with your internal processes. | ||
| 3. **Sync groups to Cloudflare** and verify they appear in the **User Groups** pane of the Cloudflare Dashboard. | ||
| 4. **Attach permission policies** to the new User Groups so members inherit the correct access upon assignment to the group. | ||
| 5. **Migrate users** into the new groups incrementally, testing synchronization of users & groups into the Cloudflare Dashboard. | ||
| 6. **Clean up legacy resources** by removing SCIM v1 Virtual Groups and IdP mappings that follow the `CF-<accountID>-<Role Name>` pattern. | ||
