The Plerion record and audit history are retained; re-provisioning the same email later restores the original user and id. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/scim-openapi.yaml delete /v1/organization/scim/v2/Users/{userId} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Plerion SCIM 2.0 provisioning API version: v1 termsOfService: https://www.plerion.com/terms-and-conditions contact: name: Plerion Pty Ltd url: https://www.plerion.com/contact-us email: support@plerion.com license: name: Plerion Use License url: https://www.plerion.com/terms-and-conditions description: |- The Plerion SCIM 2.0 provisioning API lets an identity provider create, update, deactivate, and delete users in a Plerion organization, and keep its groups in sync as Plerion user groups. It follows RFC 7643 (schema) and RFC 7644 (protocol), so any SCIM 2.0 client can use it. SCIM carries users and groups, not roles. Roles are granted to user groups in the Plerion console, and every member holds them. Groups created through this API are owned by the identity provider: their name and membership cannot be edited in Plerion, and this API sees only the groups it created. Requests are authenticated with a Plerion organization API key sent as a bearer token. The organization is resolved from the key, so no request names an organization. Write operations need a key with the readWrite access level. The Plerion console shows the exact SCIM base URL for your organization in the SCIM provisioning section of your single sign-on settings. Paste that value into your identity provider rather than assembling it by hand. For setup instructions, see the SCIM provisioning guides. servers: - url: https://{region}.api.plerion.com description: Production API server - Select your preferred region variables: region: default: au enum: - au - sg1 - in1 - us1 security: - organizationApiKey: [] tags: - name: Discovery x-displayName: Discovery description: >- The SCIM discovery endpoints describe what this service supports.
