User Provisioning between two Drupal websites

If you have users on two Drupal websites and want to keep both sites updated with user information without logging in separately each time, miniOrange offers a solution using the SCIM standard. It helps provision users to both Drupal websites seamlessly.

In order to address this issue, miniOrange has developed a Drupal module that allows Drupal to Drupal User Provisioning and Sync. This module enables users to log into another Drupal website using their Drupal account credentials in order to visit your website. The SCIM User Provisioner module also supports provisioning with custom Providers. Any IDP that follows the SCIM standard is compatible with the SCIM User Provisioner module.

  • Download the module:
    composer require 'drupal/user_provisioning'
  • Navigate to Extend menu on your Drupal admin console and search for miniOrange User Provisioning using the search box.
  • Enable the module by checking the checkbox and click on Install button.
  • Configure the module at
    {BaseURL}/admin/config/people/user_provisioning/overview
  • Install the module:
    drush en user_provisioning
  • Clear the cache:
     drush cr
  • Configure the module at
    {BaseURL}/admin/config/people/user_provisioning/overview
  • Navigate to Extend menu on your Drupal admin console and click on Install new module button.
  • Install the Drupal User Provisioning and Sync module either by downloading the zip or from the URL of the package (tar/zip).

Let's assume you have two Drupal sites: a Server site and a Client site. In this setup, the Server site will function as a Drupal SCIM Server, while the Client site will operate as a Drupal SCIM Client. This configuration ensures that any CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations executed on the Client site will be synchronized and reflected on the Server site

Note: You will require the Premium Version of the module to set up Drupal as an SCIM server.

The module supports 3 types of provisioning:

  1. Manual/On-Demand Provisioning
  2. Automatic Provisioning
  3. Scheduler-based Provisioning.
  • Choose your preferred provisioning option.
SCIM-Server-three-types-of-Provisioning

In Manual/On-Demand Provisioning, the user is manually provisioned from the Drupal site to the AWS application.

Configure Manual/On-Demand Provisioning

  • Enable the Manual/On-Demand Provisioning and select the Provisioning operations (i.e. create, update, deactivate, delete) as per your requirements and click on the All Done button.
AWS-SCIM-Server-Manual-Provisioning-Select-Operations

How Manual/On-Demand Provisioning Works?

  • Click on the Perform Manual Sync button under the Manual Provisioning column.
Drupal-SCIM-Server-Click-Perform-Manual-Provisioning

  • Search for the user you want to provision to the Drupal Server site and click on the Submit button.
AWS-SCIM-Server-Select-User-to-Provision

  • Once the user is successfully provisioned to the application, a success message is displayed.
AWS-SCIM-Server-User-Provisioned-Success

  • To confirm the changes Navigate to the Drupal Server site and check the status of the user provisioned.
Drupal-SCIM-Server-User-Provisioned-Manual

In Automatic Provisioning whenever any CRUD operation(s) is performed on the user in the Drupal site, the same CRUD operation(s) is automatically performed on the user in the AWS Application at the same time (on the fly).

Configure Automatic Provisioning

  • Enable the Automatic Provisioning and select the Provisioning operations (i.e. create, update, deactivate, delete users ) as per your requirements and click on the All Done button.
AWS-SCIM-Server-Automatic-Provisioning-Select-Operations

How Automatic Provisioning Works?

Automatic Provisioning will help you provision your users using any of the following events:

  1. Admin Interface: When administrators or privileged users manually perform CRUD operations on a user’s account via the Drupal admin interface.
  2. User account change: Whenever users themselves perform CRUD operations on their own information form user/{user_id}/edit or any other custom form.
  3. 3rd Party Modules: Whenever a user entity is updated/created in the Drupal site using any third-party modules/applications or custom code.

Let’s see how automatic provisioning works with Admin Interface

  • Navigate to the People tab (admin/people) in the top navigation bar of the Drupal Client site and click on the +Add user button.
AWS-SCIM-Server-Click-Add-User-Drupal

  • Fill in the user details and click on the Create new account button.
AWS-SCIM-Server-User-Information

  • Navigate to the People tab on the Drupal Server site to check the status of the user provisioned.
SCIM-Server-User-Provisioned-Automatic-Admin-Account

You can see the user has been successfully provisioned to the Drupal Server site.
