Automation of User creation in JIRA

Question

We want to automate user creation in JIRA.We have a third party tool where we have list of all the JIRA groups and user raise request using that tool.Once the access of a user is approved on that group ,We want that user is added to JIRA group automatically.

How can we achieve that.Is it possible to MAP JIRA groups with Active directory groups and when a user is added to active directory group,It automatically added to the group in JIRA.

Do we Need to create JIRA groups in Active directory and import those groups in JIRA and when a User is added to Active directory group that user would be synch in JIRA or there is any other process.
