“For an enterprise SaaS application, I'd recommend this setup:”
+ SCIM provisioning

“SCIM (Directory Sync): Proactively creates, updates, and deactivates users based on changes in the customer's identity provider (IdP).”

+ JIT provisioning

“JIT provisioning: Creates a user and adds them to the organization automatically when they successfully log in through SAML for the first time.”

+ Directory Sync webhook events

“WorkOS Directory Sync also provides webhook events so your application can react to directory changes.”

+ JIT enabled by default in AuthKit

“JIT is enabled by default in WorkOS AuthKit, but can be disabled in the WorkOS Dashboard.”

− JIT does not deprovision users

“Deprovisioning: Don't rely on JIT to revoke access. Use SCIM and handle directory deprovisioning events in your application.”
