Summary and recommendation
Vidyard, the video marketing platform used by sales and marketing teams, does not offer native SCIM provisioning on any plan. While Vidyard provides SAML SSO integration with Enterprise plans (~$1,316/user/year for 100+ users), this only handles authentication through Just-in-Time (JIT) provisioning. Users are automatically created on first login, but there's no way to programmatically manage user attributes, deactivate accounts, or handle group assignments beyond basic team mapping via SAML attributes. This creates a significant gap for IT teams managing video platforms where sales users frequently join, change roles, or leave the organization.
The JIT-only approach becomes particularly problematic for Vidyard's core use case: sales prospecting and customer success video outreach. When sales reps need immediate access to create personalized videos for hot prospects, they're dependent on remembering to use IdP-initiated login flows and manual team assignments. More critically, when employees leave, their Vidyard accounts remain active indefinitely since there's no automated deprovisioning, creating potential data exposure risks with recorded videos and customer interaction data.
The strategic alternative
Vidyard has no native SCIM. Automate offboarding, user access reviews, and license workflows across every app, including the ones without APIs. We maintain the integration layer underneath. You focus on judgment, not plumbing.

The cost of not automating
Without SCIM (or an alternative like Stitchflow), your IT team manages Vidyard accounts manually. Here's what that costs:
The Vidyard pricing problem
Vidyard gates SCIM provisioning behind premium plans, forcing significant cost increases for basic user management.
Tier comparison
| Plan | Price | SSO | SCIM |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $59/user/month (annual) | ||
| Pro (Teams) | $99/user/month | ||
| Enterprise | Custom (~$1,316/user/year) |
Pricing and provisioning options
| Plan | Pricing | SCIM | SSO |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $59/user/month (annual) | ❌ Not available | ❌ Not available |
| Pro (Teams) | $99/user/month | ❌ Not available | ❌ Not available |
| Enterprise | Custom (~$1,316/user/year) | ❌ Not available | ✓ SAML only |
What this means in practice
Minimum Enterprise commitment: For a 50-user deployment, you're looking at ~$65,800/year just to get basic SSO functionality. There's no SCIM at any tier - even Enterprise customers rely on JIT provisioning through SAML attributes.
Okta integration confusion: While Okta's app catalog claims "SCIM provisioning supported," this is misleading. Vidyard only supports attribute mapping through SAML, not true SCIM lifecycle management.
Additional constraints
Summary of challenges
- Vidyard 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 Vidyard actually offers for identity
SAML SSO (Enterprise only)
Vidyard's Enterprise plan includes SAML 2.0 single sign-on with these capabilities:
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Protocol | SAML 2.0 |
| Supported IdPs | Okta, Entra ID, Google Workspace |
| JIT Provisioning | ✓ Yes (enabled by default) |
| Team Assignment | Via vyTeam SAML attribute |
| First Login | Must be IdP-initiated |
Key limitation: Users are created automatically on first login, but there's no way to pre-provision accounts or manage user attributes after creation.
What's Actually Missing
Despite the Okta Integration Network listing showing "provisioning supported," Vidyard has no native SCIM implementation:
| SCIM Feature | Supported? |
|---|---|
| Create users | ❌ No |
| Update user attributes | ❌ No |
| Deactivate users | ❌ No |
| Group provisioning | ❌ No |
| Bulk operations | ❌ No |
The Enterprise Pricing Reality
To get basic SSO, you're looking at:
For most teams wanting automated user provisioning, you're paying for video marketing features when you just need identity management. The SSO-only approach means manual cleanup when employees leave and no centralized attribute management.
What IT admins are saying
Vidyard's lack of native SCIM support creates ongoing manual work for IT teams managing video sales and marketing tools:
The confusing part: Okta's integration catalog claims "provisioning supported" with SCIM, but Vidyard's own documentation shows no native SCIM capabilities - only JIT provisioning through SAML.
- Manual user provisioning required despite Enterprise pricing
- JIT provisioning only works after first IdP-initiated login
- Team assignments must be managed through SAML attributes
- No automated deprovisioning when employees leave
JIT enabled by default. Users must use IdP-initiated login first time.
Team assignment via vyTeam SAML attribute
The recurring theme
IT teams pay Enterprise prices (~$1,316/user/year) but still manually manage user lifecycles in a platform their sales teams use daily for prospect outreach.
The decision
| Your Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Small sales team (<20 users) with stable headcount | Manual management is acceptable |
| Growing sales organization with frequent onboarding | Use Stitchflow: automation essential for rapid user access |
| Enterprise with multiple teams (sales, marketing, CS) | Use Stitchflow: automation strongly recommended |
| Using Okta with existing SCIM workflows | Use Stitchflow: Okta's integration lacks reliability guarantees |
| Compliance-heavy environment requiring audit trails | Use Stitchflow: automation essential for proper governance |
The bottom line
Vidyard is essential for modern sales teams, but its SAML-only approach creates friction when reps need immediate video access for time-sensitive prospects. With Enterprise pricing already at ~$1,316/user/year, adding Stitchflow's <$5K flat-rate automation removes the provisioning bottleneck without breaking your budget.
