Explanation

SPML (Service Provisioning Markup Language) is an XML-based OASIS standard specifically designed to exchange provisioning requests and responses for identity and account management (creating, modifying, and deleting accounts across systems). SAML is used for authentication and authorization assertions (SSO), not provisioning. XACML is used for defining access control policies. SOAP is a general-purpose messaging protocol for web services and does not specifically address provisioning workflows. SPML is the direct answer because it was built for exactly this use case: automating account creation/provisioning requests between systems.
