Using the aadOptSCIM062020 Flag in Microsoft Entra for MAS SCIM Provisioning Issues

How To


Summary

This document explains how to use the aadOptscim062020 flag in Microsoft Entra to resolve common SCIM provisioning and deprovisioning issues when integrating with Maximo Application Suite.

When integrating MAS with Microsoft Entra using SCIM provisioning, customers may encounter unexpected behavior such as:
- Users not being properly deprovisioned in MAS
- Updates not being reflected correctly
- Attribute mismatches or skipped updates

Microsoft Entra provides a set of optional SCIM compatibility flags that modify provisioning behavior to accommodate differences in SCIM implementations.

One such flag: aadOptscim062020, adjusts how Entra processes SCIM operations and has been observed to resolve several common provisioning issues affecting MAS environments.

Environment

MAS 9+

Steps

  1. Log in to the Microsoft Entra Admin Center.
  2. Navigate to Enterprise Applications.
  3. Select the application configured for MAS SCIM provisioning.
  4. Go to Provisioning.
  5. Locate the Tenant URL field.
  6. Append the following query parameter to the SCIM endpoint URL: ?aadOptSCIM062020=true

Example:

https://<your-mas-scim-endpoint>/scim/v2?aadOptscim062020=true
