Hi there,

I am in the process of automating some of the items that currently manually managed by our service desk team, specifically when the IDP username\email is changed. At present, the team signs into Zoom Admin and updates these values. We are utilizing SCIM provisioning via our IDP (Okta, fwiw) but changing a username just ends up creating a brand new Zoom account, and we’re left with two – itself a little unusual, as usually the external ID will be honored in SCIM to bind these, but I digress.

I have a workflow that calls the Zoom API upon user login change within IDP, and I’m getting a 200 – but it doesn’t actually appear to be doing anything:

My request body is as follows:

{

“schemas”: [ “urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:zoom:1.0:User”

],

“[userName":"new.username@ourdomain.com](mailto:userName%22:%22new.username@ourdomain.com)”

}

Is this possible via the API…am I perhaps using the wrong namespace?

Thanks in advance!!
