How Twine helps you integrate with SCIM

Working across several HR and payroll systems is everyday life for many organisations and their HR and payroll teams. But when the systems are not integrated, you get manual work, entry errors and needless admin.

Twine helps you integrate SCIM with your other systems so the right data is in the right place, automatically.

Whether you want to sync employee data with your payroll system, send payroll input to it, or create users automatically, we build a flexible, tailored integration for your needs.

Our integration syncs SCIM data with any system on our platform. See which systems can be integrated with SCIM via Twine.

How a SCIM integration works

Twine supports SCIM in two directions.

Receiving users. Twine acts as a SCIM server. Your identity provider pushes new, changed, deactivated and deleted users to Twine, which stores them as employees. This works with any standards-compliant SCIM client, which authenticates with a token Twine issues for your organisation.

Pushing users to Microsoft Entra ID. Twine can also act as a SCIM client and push employees in bulk to Entra ID through Microsoft's inbound provisioning API. Authentication uses a certificate: Twine generates it and you add the public key to Entra. No client secrets are involved, and you never handle the private key.

Twine supports the SCIM User resource. Groups are not supported yet.

Our integration syncs data between SCIM and any system in your landscape. When information is updated in one system, the change is passed on automatically.

If an employee does not exist in SCIM, the integration can create them directly. No manual handling, and less risk of errors.

You decide:

01 Which data is sent
02 How fields are mapped
03 How often the systems sync
04 Whether the integration is one-way or two-way

What can be integrated with SCIM?

Our integrations are dynamic, so you choose exactly which data to send and how it is mapped. This is the data Twine can exchange with SCIM:

Employees Both ways
Organisational units From SCIM

Who is this integration for?

This integration is built for teams that use SCIM and want to integrate it with their other systems, for example 4human, Agda (File), Medvind WFM, Entra ID, Teamtailor, Skovik, Aboard and Agda PS.
