Hi All,

The requirement based on [1]. Since wso2 identity server can act as a SCIM
provider, it exposes  REST end points with standard http methods (GET,
POST, PUT, DELETE). How ever according to [2] http PATCH method also
require to do patch operation. The idea of patch operation is, suppose we
need to add new user to existing group, with update operation we can update
entire list of users in a particular group so we have to send complete set
of users. Patch operation supports merging of existing users with new
users.

The bottleneck to implement patch operation is currently [3] does not
support http PATCH method directly. But according to [4] it allows custom
annotation such as @Update or @Patch.

WDYT?
