Customize SCIM protocols for your identity management.  
SCIM customization enables you to do the following:

* Support custom fields on the <kbd class="ph userinput">sys_user</kbd> and <kbd class="ph userinput">sys_user_group</kbd> tables through dynamic extension schema generation.
* Provide an ability to override the default SCIM mappings.
{#scim-customisation__ul_rdl_2k3_mtb}

You need the <kbd class="ph userinput">scim_config_admin</kbd> to define custom extension schemas for user and group resources. The attributes defined in the custom extension schema can be mapped to fields in the
<kbd class="ph userinput">sys_user</kbd> and <kbd class="ph userinput">sys_user_group</kbd> tables.

## Configurations for SCIM customization {#scim-customisation__section_d43_qs4_dtb}

For SCIM customization, you should perform the following tasks:

* Define a custom extension schema for users and groups in the SCIM Extension schema table.  For more information see, [Create a SCIM Extension schema](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/KSlMX5hST5wpoS1Ptvw2yA "Create custom attributes to map to fields that are not mapped as part of either the core schema or the ServiceNow extension schema.").
* Create entities in an ETL definition for custom schema attributes. The entities are created for the target table that is mapped with either the <kbd class="ph userinput">sys_user</kbd> and <kbd class="ph userinput">sys_user_group</kbd> attributes. For more information see, [Create a SCIM ETL definition](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/bl82UlnXLNui0yrTYNtmEg "Use the SCIM ETL definitions to map the custom attributes with the sys_user or sys_user_group tables.").
* Create an RTE mapping between these two entities.  For more information see, step [5](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/bl82UlnXLNui0yrTYNtmEg#create-scim-etl-definitions__RTEMapping) in the [Create a SCIM ETL definition](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/bl82UlnXLNui0yrTYNtmEg "Use the SCIM ETL definitions to map the custom attributes with the sys_user or sys_user_group tables.").
* Send custom schema attributes with data in the SCIM API request payload.

{#scim-customisation__ul_nhl_xrh_gtb}

The SCIM API calls the RTE engine with the defined mapping. The data is stored in the
respective fields in the target table as defined in the mapping.
