How do I manage the user that Jira is using for the Azure AD sync with our instance

[Edward Moxley]

We are using Azure AD for our authentication method. We have a sync that automatically runs every hour. How do we manage the user that the automated sync connects as?

@Edward Moxley ,

What are you specifically using to sync? If you are using Atlassian Guard then this connection is managed through the Azure app registration.

Could you elaborate a bit more in detail how your setup is configured?

We are using Guard and are syncing the users and groups from Azure AD. The Sync process runs in the background. How do I change the user that authenticates to Azure to synchronize those users and groups via the automated process?
