scim2-models

Pydantic models for SCIM schemas defined in RFC7643 and RFC7644.

This library provides utilities to parse and produce SCIM2 payloads, and handle them with native Python objects. It aims to be used as a basis to build SCIM2 servers and clients.

What's SCIM anyway?

SCIM stands for System for Cross-domain Identity Management, and it is a provisioning protocol. Provisioning is the action of managing a set of resources across different services, usually users and groups. SCIM is often used between Identity Providers and applications in completion of standards like OAuth2 and OpenID Connect. It allows users and groups creations, modifications and deletions to be synchronized between applications.

Installation

pip install scim2-models

payload = {
    "schemas": ["urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:core:2.0:User"],
    "id": "2819c223-7f76-453a-919d-413861904646",
    "userName": "bjensen@example.com",
    "meta": {
        "resourceType": "User",

    },
}

user = User.model_validate(payload)
assert user.user_name == "bjensen@example.com"
