Summary and recommendation
Axure RP, the wireframing and prototyping platform used by UX teams worldwide, does not support SCIM provisioning on any plan. While Axure offers SAML 2.0 SSO for authentication on Business and Enterprise plans, this only handles login verification—not user lifecycle management. Teams must still manually create user accounts, assign project permissions, and manage access to shared prototypes. For organizations with distributed design teams or frequent contractor onboarding, this creates a significant administrative burden.
The gap becomes particularly problematic for design-driven organizations where prototype access needs to be tightly controlled. Without automated provisioning, IT teams face a choice between manual user management (slowing down design workflows) or over-provisioning access (creating security risks around sensitive product designs). LDAP and Active Directory integration is limited to on-premises Axure Cloud deployments only, leaving cloud customers without directory-based provisioning options.
The strategic alternative
Stitchflow provides managed provisioning automation for Axure RP without requiring any custom development work. Works with any Axure plan and integrates with Okta, Entra, Google Workspace, and OneLogin. Flat pricing under $5K/year, regardless of team size.

The cost of not automating
Without SCIM (or an alternative like Stitchflow), your IT team manages Axure RP accounts manually. Here's what that costs:
The Axure RP pricing problem
Axure RP gates SCIM provisioning behind premium plans, forcing significant cost increases for basic user management.

| Team | $49/user/mo (annual) | ||
| Business | Custom pricing | ||
| Enterprise | Custom pricing |

What this means in practice
Without SCIM, IT admins managing Axure RP face several operational challenges:
JIT provisioning via SAML helps with authentication but doesn't solve the core user lifecycle management problem.
Additional constraints
Summary of challenges
- Axure RP does not provide native SCIM at any price tier
- Organizations must rely on third-party tools or manual provisioning
- Our research shows teams manually provisioning this app spend significant hidden costs annually
What Axure RP actually offers for identity
SAML SSO (Business/Enterprise plans)
Axure RP supports SAML 2.0 integration for cloud-based authentication:
| Setting | Details |
|---|---|
| Protocol | SAML 2.0 |
| Supported IdPs | Okta, Entra ID, Google Workspace, custom SAML providers |
| JIT Provisioning | ✓ Yes - converts standard accounts to SSO |
| User requirement | Can create accounts on first login via JIT |
| Plan requirement | Business account or higher |
LDAP/Active Directory (On-premises only)
For organizations running on-premises Axure Cloud servers:
| Feature | Supported? |
|---|---|
| LDAP authentication | ✓ Yes |
| Active Directory integration | ✓ Yes |
| Cloud deployment | ❌ On-premises only |
| Automated provisioning | ❌ Authentication only |
Critical gap: Axure RP has no native SCIM provisioning documented anywhere. The SAML integration handles authentication with JIT account creation, but there's no automated way to:
Okta & Entra ID Integration Status
| Platform | Status |
|---|---|
| Okta Integration Network | No dedicated Axure app listed |
| Entra ID Gallery | No dedicated Axure app listed |
| Manual SAML setup | Required for SSO |
| Provisioning support | None available |
For design teams managing multiple projects and stakeholder access, this means user lifecycle management remains entirely manual - you'll be adding, updating, and removing users through the Axure Cloud web interface.
What IT admins are saying
Axure RP's manual user management approach frustrates IT teams managing design workflows:
- No SCIM provisioning means every user addition, removal, or role change requires manual intervention
- LDAP/Active Directory integration only works with on-premises Axure Cloud servers, not the cloud version
- Team project access and prototype sharing permissions must be managed separately from identity providers
- SSO setup requires manual SAML configuration without pre-built integrations in major IdP galleries
We have to manually add every designer to Axure and then separately manage their project permissions. When someone leaves, we have to remember to remove them from both our IdP and Axure - it's easy to miss.
The LDAP integration looks promising until you realize it's only for on-premises deployments. Most teams are using Axure Cloud, so you're back to manual user management.
The recurring theme
Design teams need rapid onboarding for project collaboration, but Axure's manual provisioning creates delays and security gaps when user access isn't properly synchronized with corporate identity systems.
The decision
| Your Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Small UX team (<10 designers) with stable membership | Manual management with SAML SSO for authentication |
| Growing design organization (15+ users) with frequent project changes | Use Stitchflow: prototype access management becomes complex |
| Enterprise with multiple design teams and compliance requirements | Use Stitchflow: automation essential for audit trail and governance |
| Agency or consultancy with rotating client project teams | Use Stitchflow: frequent user/project changes require automation |
| Organizations requiring immediate offboarding for IP protection | Use Stitchflow: instant deprovisioning critical for design assets |
The bottom line
Axure RP offers powerful prototyping capabilities but completely lacks SCIM provisioning—leaving design teams with manual user management or basic JIT via SAML. For organizations where prototype access control and timely user lifecycle management matter, Stitchflow eliminates the operational overhead.
