Do we have any database relationship between the People and User objects in Deel? What exactly is the difference between the People and User objects? Thank you

Hi @Ghana , People and User refers to the same data in Public API, the difference is that we call Users in SCIM endpoints and People for REST endpoints.

@guilherme_deel Thank you for the quick response. Could you let me know your recommendation on which API I should use between People (REST API) or User (SCIM)? I didn’t understand why we have Users in SCIM endpoints when we have a REST API to pull the data. We are trying to push this data from Deel…
