Directory Stores - Overview

What is Directory Stores?

If you are using other directory services and finding it difficult to manage all your users there, you can delegate some of your users and apps, and manage them from Zoho Directory.

To use Directory Stores, you will have to perform the following:
  1. Integrate a directory service with Zoho Directory
    This can be performed by configuring provisioning in the directory service. You need to copy the sync endpoint and SCIM token from Zoho Directory and paste it in the provisioning setup screen of the required apps in the directory service. After this configuration, you can sync users' information on-demand (if you need the sync immediately) or automatically (where the users' information will be synced at regular intervals).
  2. Map the fields for user creation
    You can map the available fields in the directory service to the relevant fields available in Zoho Directory. Once mapped, the information of every new users added in the directory service will be automatically added in Zoho Directory.
  3. Set password verification method
    Not limiting to field mapping, you can also choose how you want your users to receive their One Time Password.
  4. Enable or disable status sync
    Choose how the change in user status on the directory service should be reflected in Zoho Directory.
The users' information will only be synced correctly in Zoho Directory after completing all of these steps.
