Provisioning Integration
Limitations
SIMS ID (aka DeX) does not provide all the data that exists within SIMS and it is not a replacement for the rich data available through the SIMS Partner programme’s APIs; SIMS ID can pass lightweight data suitable for user provisioning and group association; this data can also be passed securely using a range of protocols.
Approaches to Provisioning & Data Exchange
SIMS ID has a provisioning API that exposes a subset of data; Access to this API is restricted to secure access using the SIMS ID STS.
The SIMS ID Provisioning API is defined by Swagger.
Swagger is a tool used to provide a list of SIMS ID APIs. This forms the API documentation and will be available on a public URL.
