Synchronize Users with an Identity Provider

The Console uses external Identity Providers to manage user identities and authentication; configuration details can be found in the Console Installation documentation section dedicated to the Authentication Provider.

How to setup user synchronization

If you want to synchronize users between the Identity Provider and the Console, making it possible to automatically create or delete users in the Console when you create or delete them on your Identity Provider, you can use the following webhook:

POST /api/webhooks/apps/console/providers/:providerId/user

Where providerId must be set based on the authProvider.name configuration field set in the installation chart

info

Webhooks are not exposed by default, to make them available check-out user synchronization activation flag.

caution

User synchronization is officially supported only for Okta OIE.
