Customers can now integrate the Alation Agentic Data Intelligence Platform with SailPoint.
This integration enables automated user provisioning into Alation directly from SailPoint, streamlining identity governance for enterprise data platforms. With SCIM 2.0 support, organizations can ensure that the right users have the right access in Alation and that access is removed automatically when it’s no longer needed.
Key Capabilities
- Automated Lifecycle Management: Provision, update, and deprovision Alation user accounts from SailPoint.
- Role-Based Access Control: Map SailPoint entitlements to Alation roles via SCIM integration.
- Consistent Governance: Manage Alation user access with the same workflows used across your SailPoint environment.
- Flexible Deployment: Works with both Alation Cloud Service and customer-managed deployments (version 2025.3+).
- Alation exposes a standards-based SCIM 2.0 API at /scim/v2.
- SailPoint connects using the SCIM 2.0 SaaS connector with bearer token authentication.
- User identity is keyed by work email, while Alation groups map directly to user roles.
- Deprovisioning is handled gracefully by setting accounts to inactive rather than deleting them.
Supported Identity Operations:
- Role or Tag Mapping
- Entitlement Aggregation
- Account Disablement
Support Level: Technology Partner
