Contentful SCIM pricing: what it's gated behind, and what it costs
SCIM gated behind a paid tier. Iden provisions Contentful on any plan tier.
2 min read · Last updated June 2026
Contentful gates SCIM provisioning behind its Premium / Enterprise plan (Contact Sales), up from Lite: $300/mo flat. Standard plans cannot use automated provisioning, so most identity tools either make you upgrade or leave Contentful manual. Iden provisions Contentful on any plan, so you skip the SCIM tax entirely and still get provisioning, deprovisioning, and access reviews with a full audit trail.
What the Contentful SCIM tax costs

How Iden provisions Contentful on any plan
Iden does not depend on Contentful’s SCIM endpoint. It connects Contentful 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.
