# Agenda
* Paul/Matt P go through SCIM-PAM draft
* Matt D to go through the actions from previous group surveys (a spreadsheet we are calling the SCIM IG Interest List)
# SCIM PAM ietf draft Summary
* Paul/Matt note that they are not original authors and hope they do justice to the original draft spec, with apologies and thanks to Kelly Grizzle, et al
* Spec link: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-grizzle-scim-pam-ext-01
* Spec Github page: https://github.com/kelly-grizzle-sp/scim-pam
* Presentation link: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1qd6pewmf_DXVydtg9siHeQvC5xhnJ4OmqEQcJzoyf9E/edit#slide=id.gc83ee66d31_0_265
* Usage: SCIM PAM is in active use in the SCIM PAM Sailpoint connector
* Lots of SailPoint customers are using it already
* Purpose: The draft helps IGA+PAM solutions to do two things together:
* use SCIM to read Privileged Data
* Use SCIM to read and modify the access rights to Privileged Data (ACLs)
* Paper Cuts
* The draft needs a statement of purpose. The draft does 2 things but nobody ever summarizes those things
* Reading/writing ACLs is done in a very specific way - opportunity for us as a group is to make this a more generalized standardized SCIM-esque standard
* Because there is no authorization in SCIM the draft had to build that functionality
* We have the opportunity to build that into SCIM core which would make this draft much more concise
* There is no SCIM concept of linking objects.
* We have the opportunity to make that pattern more standardized
* Linked objects is a generically useful concept that we could make easy
* A way to canonically address the authority
* Need some kind of way to designate who the canonical authority is for an attribute
* Difficult to determine when something has changed in SCIM
* Notifications are a problem
* Matt D would love to see a webhook-style change mechanism
## SCIM 2021 Interest List
* Matt overviewed the items in the list - a combination of existing drafts (including the SCIM-PAM draft we just reviewed today) and also additional ideas
* The tentative plan is
* Matt to get the list into a format that we can collectively iterate on
* We will make topics out of all the items in this meeting
## Persistent Questions for Future Meetings (or to go to the group)
* Is multi-value pagination a special case for groups only or a more generic concern?
* Do we need to address only object pagination or is cursor pagination as important?
## Next Meeting:
* April 21, 3pm PT
* Pam to ask Mark Wahl if he will summarize his draft
* More work on the Interest List
* Pam to get the plan for sorting videos figured out
