d8ea041c56 docs: introduce versioned docs and migrate to fuma (#11166)
## Todos for release

- [x] Configure Env in docs project on vercel
- [x] Configure Root Path in the docs project on vercel
- [ ] Remove old CSP https://github.com/zitadel/website/pull/1592

## What we did

This pull request migrates the project documentation from the old
`docs/` directory to the new `apps/docs/` directory, introduces a new
documentation system built with Next.js and Fumadocs, and updates all
relevant references, configuration files, and documentation to reflect
this change. It also adds new configuration and ignore files for the new
documentation app, updates CI and linting to exclude the new docs from
certain checks, and revises the contributing guidelines accordingly.

**Documentation System Migration and New Docs App**

* Migrated all documentation from `docs/` to `apps/docs/`, and updated
all references in `README.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and other files to
point to the new location.

version for consistency.

**Licensing and Miscellaneous**

* Added `apps/docs/` to the list of licensed directories in
`LICENSING.md`.

These changes ensure the documentation is now maintained in a modern,
scalable system and all project tooling is updated to support the new
structure.

title: SCIM Provisioning from Okta
---
This guide provides step-by-step instructions to configure SCIM provisioning from Okta into ZITADEL.
## Pre-requisites:
* Access to your ZITADEL Organization with an **Org Owner** role.
* Access to your Okta Admin dashboard.
* An existing **SAML app integration** between Okta (Identity Provider) and ZITADEL (Service Provider).
## Step 1: Set Up SCIM Provisioning in ZITADEL
SCIM provisioning in ZITADEL is accomplished by authenticating a Service User with appropriate permissions.
1. **Create a Service User**:
* Follow [this guide](https://zitadel.com/docs/guides/manage/console/users-overview) to create a Service User within your ZITADEL Organization.
2. **Assign the Role**:
* Grant the Service User the **Org User Manager** role. No higher managerial role is required.
3. **Choose an Authentication Method**:
* Select one of these two supported authentication methods:
* Personal Access Token \- PAT
* Client Credentials Grant
4. Detailed instructions to authenticate the Service User can be found [here](https://zitadel.com/docs/guides/integrate/service-users/authenticate-service-users).
## Step 2: Set Up SCIM in Okta
Follow these precise steps to configure SCIM provisioning in Okta:
1. Log in to your Okta Admin Console.
2. Navigate to **Applications** → **Application** and the existing **SAML app** linked to ZITADEL.
3. Select the **General** tab, then choose **Edit** for **App Settings**.
4. In the **Provisioning** section, select **SCIM** and then **Save**.

5. Under the **General** tab, also confirm that [Federation Broker Mode](https://help.okta.com/en-us/content/topics/apps/apps-fbm-main.htm) is disabled.
6. Click on the **Provisioning** tab, then go to the **Integration** tab and select **Edit**.
<img src="/docs/img/manage/users/select-provisioning-actions.png" alt="Select provisioning actions in Okta"/>
7. Enter the **SCIM connector base URL** using this format:
```https://${ZITADEL_DOMAIN}/scim/v2/{orgId}```
Like the example in the above image:
```https://test-domain-bkeog4.us1.zitadel.cloud/scim/v2/322355063156684166```
*(Find more details about endpoints [here](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/scim2#supported-endpoints)).*
8. For **Unique identifier field for users**, enter **userName**.
9. Under **Supported provisioning actions**, select ***Push New Users*** and ***Push Profile Updates***.
10. Choose your authentication method under **Authentication Mode**:
* **HTTP Header** if using a Personal Access Token (PAT).
* **OAuth 2** if using Client Credentials Grant.
11. Provide the authentication details according to your chosen method:
* For **HTTP Header (PAT)**, enter the PAT token generated from ZITADEL.
* For **OAuth 2**, provide the client credentials (Client ID, Client Secret, token URL, authorization URL).
12. Click **Test Connection Configuration** to verify the integration (optional but recommended), then click **Save**.
13. Under the **Provisioning to App** settings, enable:
* **Create Users**
* **Update User Attributes**
* **Deactivate Users**
14. Click **Save** to apply these settings.

## Step 3: Attribute Mapping (Recommended)
Review and adjust attribute mappings in Okta as needed:
* Ensure standard attributes such as `userName`, `email`, `name.givenName`, and `name.familyName` are correctly mapped.
## Step 4: Verify SCIM Provisioning
* Assign the configured application to test users/groups in Okta.
* Verify that users are automatically provisioned into ZITADEL by checking under **Users** in your ZITADEL console.
* Validate attribute synchronization and lifecycle management (activation, updates, deactivation).
