Overview
Identity Confluence (IC) is a platform that enables seamless integration with identity providers like Okta and Azure. Acting as a gateway between identity providers (IDP) and downstream service providers or applications, IC facilitates integration by building SCIM adapters for target applications.
IC offers essential features such as reconciliation, auditing, and user provisioning history, helping organizations manage identity processes, including the creation, updating, deletion, or deactivation of user accounts across various applications.
