Configure SCIM provisioning between Azure Active Directory and Couchdrop

Navigate to the Provisioning Tab on the left hand side. Next select Get started to configure the tenant URL and the User Provisioning Token that was created in Step 1. Provisioning mode should be set to automatic. The Tenant URL is: https://api.couchdrop.io/scim/v2.

The externalId attribute may need to be remapped from mailNickname to objectId on the Azure Active Directory attribute side depending on your settings.

After the provisioning has completed running the first time a status should be required that indicates how many users and groups were provisioned within the Couchdrop product. Further information can be located by selecting View provisioning logs.
