Aptly + SSO + SCIM

Overview

Aptly supports seamless Single Sign-On (SSO) and System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) integrations with all major enterprise identity providers. This enables organizations to manage authentication, access, and user provisioning centrally — while ensuring full alignment with Aptly’s governance and delegation framework.
By leveraging industry standards — SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect (OIDC) and SCIM 2.0 — Aptly lets you connect your existing identity infrastructure to automate user lifecycle management and strengthen security.

Supported Identity Providers

Aptly supports direct SSO and SCIM integration with leading identity providers, including:

• Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD)
• Okta
• PingOne & PingFederate
• SailPoint IdentityNow
• OneLogin
• JumpCloud
• Google Workspace
• Auth0
• Microsoft AD FS

Each provider supports SSO via SAML 2.0 or OIDC, as well as automated user and group provisioning using SCIM 2.0.

Key Capabilities

Secure Single-Sign-On (SSO)
Users authenticate to Aptly through their organization’s IdP using standard protocols (SAML 2.0 or OIDC). This ensures centralized credential management, MFA enforcement, and alignment with corporate access policies.

Automated User Provisioning (SCIM)
Aptly automatically provisions, updates, and deactivates user accounts and groups based on identity data from the connected IdP. Changes in the directory — such as role, department, or employment status — are instantly reflected in Aptly.

Group-Based Role Assignment
Directory groups and SCIM-based group assignments can be mapped to Aptly roles. This means users receive the correct authorities and permissions automatically when joining teams or changing assignments.

Centralized Access & Audit Control
All SSO and SCIM events are logged for full traceability. Administrators and compliance teams can review authentication activity, user updates, and access changes — supporting audit readiness and access governance.

Multi-Entity & Multi-Tenant Support
For organizations managing multiple subsidiaries or regions, Aptly supports multiple IdPs or domains within a single tenant — allowing consistent identity and delegation governance across global structures.

Value to Organizations

Integrating Aptly with your identity ecosystem transforms access and authority management into a unified, automated governance engine. IT and security teams retain centralized control while HR, legal, and finance benefit from real-time alignment between user roles and decision authorities.
The result is a fully synchronized identity-to-governance framework that enforces compliance, reduces manual effort, and accelerates user lifecycle processes.

Example Use Cases

• Onboarding Automation: Automatically provision new employees with Aptly access and assign roles based on directory groups.
• Access Revocation: Immediately deactivate user accounts in Aptly when users are removed from the IdP.
• Role Synchronisation: Map SCIM groups to Aptly roles so that when employees change departments, their authorities update immediately.
• SSO Enforcement: Require users to log in via SAML or OIDC, aligning with your organization’s MFA and session-control policies.
• Audit & Compliance: Maintain an end-to-end audit trail of authentication and provisioning events via the linked documentation.
