What is Automated Provisioning?

Automated provisioning is an efficient process that automatically gives users access to various apps, services, or resources without manual intervention from IT admins. It involves creating, updating, and deactivating user accounts and permissions. This method reduces the admin burden, minimizes security risks, ensures compliance with data and privacy regulations, provides detailed logging and audit trails, and scales easily as the number of employees grows. Automated provisioning can be enabled using protocols like SCIM or through custom integration and APIs, configuration management tools, or workflow automation platforms. WorkOS Directory Sync is a simple solution for implementing automated provisioning by connecting your app to customer directory providers.
