+# Configure SCIM for self-managed GitLab instances **(PREMIUM SELF)**
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/8902) in GitLab 15.8.
+
+You can use the open standard System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) to automatically:
+
+- Create users.
+- Block users.
+
+The [internal GitLab SCIM API](../../development/internal_api/index.md#instance-scim-api) implements part of [the RFC7644 protocol](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7644).
+
+If you are a GitLab.com user, see [configuring SCIM for GitLab.com groups](../../user/group/saml_sso/scim_setup.md).
+
+## Configure GitLab
+
+Prerequisites:
+
+- Configure [SAML single sign-on](../../integration/saml.md).
+
+To configure GitLab SCIM:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Settings > General**.
+1. Expand the **SCIM Token** section and select **Generate a SCIM token**.
+1. For configuration of your identity provider, save the:
+    - Token from the **Your SCIM token** field.
+    - URL from the **SCIM API endpoint URL** field.
+
+## Remove access
+
+Removing or deactivating a user on the identity provider blocks the user on
+the GitLab instance, while the SCIM identity remains linked to the GitLab user.
+
+To update the user SCIM identity, use the
+[internal GitLab SCIM API](../../development/internal_api/index.md#update-a-single-scim-provisioned-user-1).
