Automate UpdraftPlus User Provisioning
Without SCIM

UpdraftPlus does not currently offer SCIM-based user provisioning. Stepwork automates UpdraftPlus provisioning with 98% accuracy — no API required.

Why This Is Painful

Primary: Audit Gaps
  • Shared credentials; Manual onboarding; Manual offboarding

Technical Constraint

No native SCIM provisioning. Complexity Vector: WordPress stores credentials locally and multiple plugins affect authentication, making automated provisioning unreliable; Stepwork mimics UI workflows to provision users accurately.

How Stepwork Solves This

You are correct; UpdraftPlus supports SAML login via Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace, and Ping Identity, but does not support SCIM provisioning — which is why teams use Stepwork to automate UpdraftPlus flows with 98% accuracy without needing an API.
