Troubleshooting Okta SCIM errors - "Error while verifying if user xxxx exists: Forbidden. Errors reported by remote server".
Problem description
Although users assigned to Druva 2.0 SCIM App in OKTA console are auto-provisioned, OKTA Administrator may encounter the following error while importing newly assigned users if the SCIM App configuration is changed manually.
Error while verifying if user xxxx exists: Forbidden. Errors reported by remote server
Cause
The issue was with the inSync authentication for API calls for synchronizing with the OKTA SCIM App to provision users in the Administrator Console.
Resolution
To resolve this error, inSync Cloud Administrator must generate a token by performing the following steps.

5. Open the Druva 2.0 SCIM App.
