Summary and recommendation
Campaign Monitor, the email marketing platform used by agencies and marketing teams, does not support SCIM provisioning on any plan. While Campaign Monitor offers basic SSO integration through Okta and third-party solutions, there's no documented native SAML or SCIM support. This means IT teams must manually create, update, and remove user accounts - a significant operational burden for organizations managing multiple marketing team members or agency client access.
The lack of automated provisioning creates a compliance gap for organizations that need consistent identity governance across their SaaS stack. Without SCIM, departing employees may retain access to sensitive customer data and marketing campaigns, while new team members face delays in getting the access they need. For agencies managing multiple client accounts, this manual process becomes especially problematic when onboarding or offboarding staff across numerous Campaign Monitor instances.
The strategic alternative
Stitchflow provides SCIM-level provisioning through resilient browser automation for Campaign Monitor without requiring any custom development work. Works with any Campaign Monitor plan and any identity provider (Okta, Entra, Google Workspace, 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 Campaign Monitor accounts manually. Here's what that costs:
The Campaign Monitor pricing problem
Campaign Monitor gates SCIM provisioning behind premium plans, forcing significant cost increases for basic user management.

What this means in practice
No automated user lifecycle management: IT admins must manually create, update, and remove user accounts in Campaign Monitor. There's no way to sync user data, group memberships, or access levels from your identity provider.
SSO dependency on Okta: The only documented SSO option requires using Okta specifically. Organizations using Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, or other identity providers have no native SSO path.
Agency and client access challenges: Marketing agencies using Campaign Monitor to manage multiple client accounts face particular friction, as there's no systematic way to provision access across client workspaces or manage contractor permissions.
Additional constraints
Summary of challenges
- Campaign Monitor 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 Campaign Monitor actually offers for identity
SSO via Okta Integration
Campaign Monitor provides limited identity management through its Okta Integration Network listing:
| Feature | Supported? |
|---|---|
| SAML SSO | ✓ Yes (via Okta) |
| OIDC SSO | ❌ No |
| Create users | ❌ No |
| Update users | ❌ No |
| Deactivate users | ❌ No |
| Group management | ❌ No |
| JIT provisioning | ❌ No |
What you get: Basic SSO authentication through Okta only. Users can log in with their corporate credentials once configured.
What's missing: Any form of automated user provisioning. You must manually create accounts in Campaign Monitor before users can authenticate via SSO.
Third-Party SSO Solutions
Campaign Monitor's documentation mentions SSO availability through "third-party SSO solutions" beyond Okta, but provides no specifics on:
No Native SCIM or Advanced Identity Features
Campaign Monitor has not documented any native SCIM provisioning capabilities or enterprise identity features like:
Bottom line: Campaign Monitor's identity features are limited to basic SSO through select providers, with no automated provisioning to reduce IT overhead for user management across marketing teams.
What IT admins are saying
Campaign Monitor's absence of native enterprise identity features creates headaches for IT teams managing marketing tools:
- No native SCIM provisioning means manual user management across all marketing campaigns
- Limited SSO options require third-party workarounds or Okta-specific integrations
- Agency environments struggle with client account access without proper identity controls
- Template and campaign permissions must be managed entirely within Campaign Monitor
Limited enterprise identity features
The recurring theme
Marketing teams love Campaign Monitor's email capabilities, but IT teams are left managing user access manually. Without native SCIM or SAML, every new marketer, designer, or agency partner requires hands-on setup and cleanup when they leave.
The decision
| Your Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Small marketing team (<10 users) | Manual management is acceptable given Campaign Monitor's simplicity |
| Agency managing multiple client accounts | Use Stitchflow: automation critical for client onboarding/offboarding |
| Marketing team with frequent contractor turnover | Use Stitchflow: automation essential for secure access management |
| Enterprise with compliance requirements | Use Stitchflow: automation essential for audit trail and SOX compliance |
| Growing marketing organization (20+ users) | Use Stitchflow: manual provisioning becomes unmanageable |
The bottom line
Campaign Monitor is a solid email marketing platform, but it completely lacks enterprise identity management features—no native SCIM, no native SAML, just basic Okta SSO integration. For marketing teams that need reliable provisioning automation without the manual overhead of managing user access across campaigns and client accounts, Stitchflow is the clear solution.
