SCIM uses throttling to control the number of requests received from the client to protect the back-end service. Two types of throttling are used to control the rate and size of requests.

Rate-limit throttling 

  • The throttling limit is 500 calls per client, per minute.
  • If the limit is exceeded, the process fails with status code 429.

Request Body Size Limit 

  • The maximum body size allowed for SCIM APIs is 2 MB.
  • If the maximum size is exceeded, the process fails with status code 413.
