Automate SmartSheet User Provisioning
Without SCIM

SmartSheet supports SCIM provisioning, but it is gated behind higher-tier enterprise plans. Stepwork automates SmartSheet provisioning with 98% accuracy — no API required.

Category: Project ManagementSign-On: SAML, OIDCSCIM: Enterprise-only

Why This Is Painful

Primary: SSO is Enterprise-only.
  • Role/group mapping drift.
  • Sharing sprawl.
  • UI deprovision checks.

Technical Constraint

Enterprise-only SSO; partial lifecycle coverage. Complexity Vector: Access is driven by sharing, groups, and Control Center assets, so standard provisioning doesn’t prevent UI-level permission drift.

How Stepwork Solves This

It’s reasonable to expect identity automation once SSO is enabled, but Smartsheet’s sharing and workspace permissions still drift outside of directory control. Even on enterprise plans, admins are left reconciling access manually across sheets and dashboards…which is why teams use Stepwork to automate SmartSheet flows with 98% accuracy without needing an API.

How Stepwork Authenticates to SmartSheet

SmartSheet supports SAML and OIDC sign-on. Stepwork authenticates through your existing identity provider — the same way your employees do.
