Seamless User & Group Provisioning for Atlassian Cloud: Bridging the Gap in Cloud Migration
From the beginning of 2026, the cloud migration for organizations has taken full force. As companies across the world accelerate their migration to the cloud, the transition is about more than just moving data. It’s about seamlessly carrying over your most important asset: your people.
In an on-premise or Data Center environment, you likely had tight control over how users and groups were synced from your directory. As you migrate to Atlassian Cloud, maintaining that same level of precision is non-negotiable. In fact, the move to cloud is the perfect opportunity to enhance that experience, moving away from manual overhead toward a state of complete automation.
Products like Jira and Confluence work as the "digital brains" of your organization. However, the move to Cloud often breaks the tight, precise directory control you enjoyed on-premises. Many organizations turn to Atlassian Guard, but Guard is built for the "standard" path, supporting only a handful of major IDPs and rigid SCIM protocols.
The reality? Enterprise identity isn't always "standard."
If you rely on a custom IDP, LDAP, or protocols like OAuth and OIDC, Atlassian Guard often leaves you stranded with manual workarounds and security gaps.
The Solution: SCIM Provisioning for Jira Plugin
Our SCIM Provisioning plugin bridges the gap left by Atlassian Guard. It offers API-based provisioning that seamlessly syncs users and groups from any IDP, be it a custom IDP or non-standard protocols to Jira and Confluence Cloud.
Whether you are using a custom-built IDP or a specialized system, SCIM Provisioning plugin ensures full synchronization without compromise.
