Sync Users and Groups from Any Identity Provider to Atlassian Cloud with miniOrange

[#1]

As adoption of Atlassian Cloud accelerates, organizations are migrating Jira Software, Jira Service Management (JSM), and Confluence to the cloud. With the Atlassian Data Center now approaching its End of Life, many organizations are transitioning to Atlassian Cloud. As this shift accelerates, identity and access management (IAM) becomes more critical than ever.

But a key challenge emerges: How do you seamlessly provision users and groups from your existing Identity Provider (IdP) to Atlassian Cloud?

The Challenge: Gaps in API-Based Provisioning

Most companies today use IdPs like Azure AD, Okta, Ping, or open-source options such as Keycloak. While Atlassian Guard offers basic SCIM provisioning capabilities, it lacks a complete solution for API-based provisioning. This leaves organizations with a choice: either manually manage users in Atlassian Cloud or develop custom scripts against Atlassian’s APIs to sync users and groups, both of which can quickly become cumbersome and inefficient.

Introducing miniOrange’s SCIM Provisioning for Atlassian Cloud

miniOrange's SCIM Provisioning for Atlassian Cloud app bridges these gaps by offering an automated, reliable, and scalable solution for syncing users and groups directly from your IdP to Atlassian Cloud. With this plugin, you can automate the entire process, eliminating the need for manual user management or custom scripting.

Introducing miniOrange’s SCIM Provisioning for Atlassian Cloud

Our User/Group Provisioning app for Atlassian Cloud provides an automated, reliable, and scalable way to keep your Atlassian instance in sync with any identity provider.. Whether it is new user onboarding, role/group assignments, the process is fully automated.

Key Features:

• Automated User Lifecycle Management - Automatically provision users in Jira, JSM, or Confluence as soon as they are created in your IdP, ensuring seamless cloud onboarding.
• Group Synchronization - Keep user groups in sync between your IdP and Atlassian Cloud. This ensures that role-based access control (RBAC) is consistent across platforms, reducing manual work and errors.

• Provisioning Progress Tracker - Track the status of user provisioning in real-time, with a visual progress bar that shows how many users have been successfully synced.

• Detailed Audit Logging - Monitor and log every provisioning event with full visibility, allowing admins to track which users were created or updated, and any errors that occurred, ensuring compliance and troubleshooting.
• Admin Notifications on Token Expiry - Stay informed with notifications 48 hours before API token expiration, ensuring that your sync processes run without disruption.

Why This Matters:

As your organization moves to the cloud, the gaps in API-based provisioning could lead to:

• Manual user management overhead
  
  
• Licensing bloat from inactive accounts
  
  
• Security risks due to un-deprovisioned users
  
  
• Inconsistent role and group assignments
  
  

With miniOrange’s Provisioning add-on for Atlassian Cloud, you gain:

• Effortless synchronization between your IdP and Atlassian Cloud.
  
  
• Seamless user and group management for a smooth cloud transition.
  
  
• Consistent access control across Jira, JSM, and Confluence.
  
  
• Lower operational and licensing costs due to streamlined automation.
  
  

miniOrange provides the bridge for API-based provisioning that Atlassian Guard doesn’t, ensuring your cloud migration is efficient, secure, and scalable
