# Prerequisites for Auto-Provisioning

#### Agent Cake

* Agent Cake supports the app. You can check the [supported apps list](broken://pages/oBeKJIOhT0d43FHAQ1sH) to confirm coverage.
* Set up authentication Depending on the app, this may involve a username and password, an API key or an OAuth token.
* Grant the necessary access scopes. These typically include permissions for user provisioning and permission assignment.
* A user with sufficient permissions in the third-party application must set up the integration, typically someone with admin rights.

Detailed instructions for each app can be found in the individual [integration guides](broken://pages/oBeKJIOhT0d43FHAQ1sH).

#### Identity Provider (IdP) Integration

* **Set up your IdP integration:** Connect your Identity Provider to Cakewalk and approve the access scopes required for syncing users and groups.
* **Enable group sync:** Once enabled, Cakewalk continuously syncs group memberships from your IdP and automatically completes provisioning tasks based on those assignments.
