IT admins with a tenant in an identity provider
Business hub Owners
Only supported using the Cerby web app
As an IT admin collaborating with a business hub Owner, you can update user roles in your external seat-based and paid social apps via your identity provider (IdP), such as Okta or Entra ID, and a business hub.
For this identity lifecycle management functionality to work, Cerby leverages user and group provisioning from the IdP to update Cerby teams.
Requirements
The following are the requirements to update user roles in your apps via your IdP and business hub:
A user account in your IdP with privileges to manage an app integration
A Cerby workspace integrated with your IdP for single sign-on (SSO) and automatic user provisioning using the SCIM protocol. Refer to the Creating and setting up your workspace collection for instructions according to your IdP
Groups created and configured in your IdP to be used for user provisioning and deprovisioning. For instructions, read the articles according to your IdP:
A business hub connected to Cerby to which you have the Owner role
The IdP-based teams must have shared access to the business hub integration. For instructions on how to do it, read the article Add users and teams to your app via a business hub; you must follow the process to add a team
Update user roles in your apps via your IdP and business hub
To update user roles in your external apps via your IdP and business hub, you must complete the following steps depending on how you want the users to keep access to the business hub integration:
IdP group reassignment
Log in to the IdP admin console or center of your organization.
Add users or members to the groups assigned to the Cerby app integration with the role you want them to have. For instructions, read the official documentation of your IdP:
Remove the users or members from the old group. For instructions, read the official documentation of your IdP:
Entra ID: Remove members or owners of a group
Individual share
Log in to your Cerby workspace.
Complete the instructions in the article Add users and teams to your app via a business hub to share the business hub integration individually with the role you want the user to have.
Log in to the IdP admin console or center of your organization.
Remove the corresponding users or members from the old group. For instructions, read the official documentation of your IdP:
Entra ID: Remove members or owners of a group
Given that IdP users and groups are automatically provisioned and deprovisioned from your Cerby workspace, Cerby updates user roles according to the new assigned role.
Now you are done.
