2 min read · Last updated June 2026
Instructure / Canvas gates SCIM provisioning behind its All institutional plans plan (Contact Sales), up from Contact Sales (institutional, ~$3-12/user list). Standard plans cannot use automated provisioning, so most identity tools either make you upgrade or leave Instructure / Canvas manual. Iden provisions Instructure / Canvas on any plan, so you skip the SCIM tax entirely and still get provisioning, deprovisioning, and access reviews with a full audit trail.

How Iden provisions Instructure / Canvas on any plan
Iden does not depend on Instructure / Canvas’s SCIM endpoint. It connects Instructure / Canvas through the method that works on your plan, an API, OAuth, or Iden’s own custom automation, and runs the full lifecycle: onboarding on day one, permission changes as roles move, access requests that replace manual tickets, access reviews with evidence, and offboarding in seconds. That is the coverage SCIM-only tools cannot match once an app gates or lacks SCIM.
