Hi @7328x (7328x) ,, Thank you for reaching out to the Okta Community!
This question is more appropriate for our dedicated Okta Developer Forum.
My advice would be to reach out devforum.okta.com to take advantage of their expertise.
While we'll do our best to answer all of your questions here, this medium is more inclined towards Okta core products and features (non-developer work).
That being said, from what I can see here import from the app to Okta is supported, but I've not been able to locate anything that suggests that a Okta SCIM Server URL would be required. Once you've established a connection to your application, the flow can be bi-directional based on the configuration that you enable.
https://developer.okta.com/docs/guides/scim-provisioning-integration-connect/main/#to-okta
For more details on the subject, please reach out to our Developer colleagues.
If my answer helped, remember to mark it as best to increase its visibility for other members of the Okta Community who might have the same questions as you.
Hope my answer helps!

Take a look at user importing from app to Okta. https://help.okta.com/en-us/content/topics/users-groups-profiles/usgp-import-users-app.htm
Hi.. thanks for the reply,
actually the link you provided is to import users from app to okta, here okta will call get users api, but i want to call okta api from my application to create user.
I'm unaware of any Okta "SCIM" based API that allows apps to create Okta users but the following non-SCIM API allows for user account creation.
https://developer.okta.com/docs/reference/api/users/#create-user
Another non-SCIM based API way to create accounts would be for your app to call an Okta Workflow API endpoint that would trigger the Workflow to create user accounts in Okta. This would give you flexibility to make the API inputs pretty much whatever you want them to be. Not sure you could 100% match the SCIM open standard but you could create different endpoints for each CRUD event.
@7328x (7328x) the application should setup as Master user source. like AD/LDAP/Azure AD/Google Workspaces or other HR system. or you can setup some attribute from this application. the user can't sync from other application to Okta when this application is not master.
Hi,
i didnt found any document to make scim provisioning application as master user source, and you said you can setup some attribute from this application right, can you provide some details info on it.
Thanks
