Overview#
SCIM Base Schema (RFC 7643 Section 6 refers to this as the ResourceType Schema) specifies the metadata about a resource type.Resource type resources are READ-ONLY and identified using the following schema URI:
urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:core:2.0:ResourceType
The following singular attributes are defined:
- id - OPTIONAL The resource type's server unique id. This is often the same value as the "name" attribute.
- name - REQUIRED The resource type name. When applicable, service providers MUST specify the name, e.g., "User" or "Group". This name is referenced by the SCIM meta.ResourceType attribute in all resources.
- description - OPTIONAL The resource type's human-readable description. When applicable, SCIM Service Provider MUST specify the description
- endpoint - REQUIRED The resource type's HTTP-addressable endpoint relative to the Base URL of the SCIM Service Provider, e.g., "Users".
- schema - REQUIRED The resource type's SCIM Base Schema URI, e.g., "urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:core:2.0:User". This MUST be equal to the "id" attribute of the associated "Schema" resource.
- schemaExtensions - OPTIONAL A list of URIs of the resource type's schema extensions.In order to determine which URI value in the "schemas" attribute is the SCIM Base Schema and which is a SCIM schemaExtensions for any given SCIM Resource, the resource's SCIM meta.ResourceType attribute value MAY be used to retrieve the SCIM Base Schema's "ResourceType" SCIM Base Schema.
