Automatically provision, update and deprovision users and groups in Notion from JumpCloud using the Identity Management (SCIM) integration. Leverage this integration to centralize user lifecycle, user identity, and group management in JumpCloud for Notion. Save time and avoid mistakes, as well as potential security risks, related to manually creating users.
Read this article to learn how to setup the Notion integration.
Prerequisites
- A JumpCloud administrator account.
- A Notion user account with administrator permissions.
- Requires an Enterprise plan.
- Requires SAML 2.0 SSO to use SCIM. See Connect Apps with JumpCloud using Pre-built Application Connectors to set up SSO.
- Only a Workspace Owner can configure SCIM for a Notion workspace.
- At least one domain has been verified by a Workspace Owner.
- No email domains are included in the “Allowed Email Domain” section.
- Notion SCIM API is based on version 2.0 of the SCIM standard.
- The given_name and family_name are case sensitive.
- User accounts cannot be deleted through SCIM. Account deletion must be done manually.
- You can only update a member’s profile information if you have verified ownership of the user’s email domain (this is typically the same as the email domains you have configured for SAML Single Sign-On with Notion).
- Groups are supported.
Attribute Considerations
A default set of attributes are managed for users. See the Attribute Mappings section for more details.
Group Management Important Considerations
Enabling Group Management
You must select the Enable management of User Groups and Group Membership in this application option to manage groups and group membership in the application from JumpCloud.
Group Provisioning and Syncing
- Empty groups are not created.
- JumpCloud takes over management of existing groups in the application when the user group name in JumpCloud matches the name of the group in the application.
- All user groups associated with the application in JumpCloud are synced. Syncing occurs whenever there is a membership or group change event.
- Group renaming is supported.
- If a user group is disassociated from the application in JumpCloud, syncing immediately stops and the group is left as-is in the application. All members of that user group are deactivated in the application unless they are associated with another active application group that is managed from JumpCloud.
Group Deletion
- Managed groups deleted in JumpCloud are deleted in the application.
- All members of the deleted group are deactivated in the application, unless they are associated with another active application group that is managed from JumpCloud.
Disabling Group Management
- You can disable group and group membership management by unchecking the Enable management of User Groups and Group Membership in this application option.
- The managed groups and group membership are left as-is in the application.
- JumpCloud stops sending group membership information for the user, but the user’s identity will continue to be managed from JumpCloud.

- Go to USER AUTHENTICATION > SSO Applications.

- If successful, click:
- Configure Application and go to the next section.
- Close to configure your new connector at a later time.

Importing Users
This functionality is helpful if users have already been created in the application but have not been created in JumpCloud.
- Log in to the JumpCloud Admin Portal.
- Go to USER AUTHENTICATION > SSO Applications.
- Search for the application and click to open its configuration panel.
- Select the Identity Management tab.
- Click manual import.
- Select the users you want to create in JumpCloud from the application from the list of users that appear. Users in the list have two import statuses:
- New – The user has not been imported.
- Imported – user has been imported and has an account in JumpCloud.
Tip: Try using the New Users-only filter when selecting users to import. This will move all of your new users to the top of the list, making them easier to identify and select.
- Click import.
- If you are importing less than 100 users, your import results will display in real time and you can continue onboarding your users.
- If you have more than 100 users being imported, JumpCloud will send you an email when your import is complete.
- You can now connect and grant users access to all their JumpCloud resources. Learn more in the Authorize Users to an Application and Connecting Users to Resources articles.
Warning: Imported users must be members of a user group bound to an application for JumpCloud to manage their identity in, and access to, the application.
