Cadency IAM APIs

1.4.0

Welcome to the documentation for the IAM APIs. Here, you will find comprehensive information and resources related to the Identity Access Management (IAM) APIs. These APIs provide a set of powerful tools and functionalities for managing user identities within Cadency.

Please refer to the documentation sections below to explore the available API endpoints, request/response formats, authentication methods, and other relevant details.

Overview

The Identity Access Management (IAM) APIs facilitate user identity management in Cadency, streamlining the process of managing user identities. By integrating with IAM, user access changes made in the identity service will automatically propagate to the corresponding user records in Cadency.

Key automation processes supported by this integration include:

1. User Creation: When new corporate credentials are created for an employee through an identity provider, a corresponding Cadency user record is automatically generated for that employee.

2. User Deactivation: If an employee's corporate credentials are disabled through an identity provider, their Cadency user record will be automatically disabled.

3. Roles or Group Membership: IAM integration allows for synchronization of group membership between your identity service and Cadency, ensuring consistency in roles and group assignments.

Authentication

Bearer Authentication

An authentication access token is required to access the IAM APIs.

Note that:

• All requests to the IAM APIs should include the token in the Authorization header, i.e. Authorization: Bearer {access token}.
