SCIM validator Patch Group - Replace Attributes

Question

Hey,

SCIM validator (Patch Group - Replace Attributes) is sending PATCH request like this

{
  "Operations": [],
  "schemas": [
    "urn:ietf:params:scim:api:messages:2.0:PatchOp"
  ]
}

and our response is

{
  "detail": "Required 'WRITE_ONLY' attribute 'urn:ietf:params:scim:api:messages:2.0:PatchOp:Operations' is missing",
  "schemas": [
    "urn:ietf:params:scim:api:messages:2.0:Error"
  ],
  "status": 400
}

which I think is correct. What should be the expected behaviour? There is nothing to change based on the request.

I also see the same test being mentioned here, but the body looks different. Is this a bug in validator?

Answer 1

Hi @Klaudia , the server's response is correct. PATCH requires at least one operation, and you have 0. If the validator sends an empty "Operations" array, it is incorrect per SCIM standards.

Please let me know if you have any questions and I can help you further.
