IT Service Management setup

Question

Hi,

I am brand new to Jira and the community. I have recently installed the standard cloud version of Service Management in the hope of setting up an IT Service Management project. This is the only project that I require and would ask if anyone can help me with the setup of this.

I have looked around and I am finding it very difficult to navigate. I also cannot find a way to integrate this with my Azure AD or Office 365 so that I can import the users that way.

Any help that can be provided would be very much appreciated. If anyone has a video that they have made from scratch, that would be extremely useful and I could follow it.

Thank you

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

As Vendant mentioned, connecting to AD or Google Workspace requires Atlassian Access.

As far as setting up getting your Service Desk / Service Management all setup, there's no doubt that it can be an overwhelming task... but I do recommend you take time to look at their Service Request "get started" doc.  I'll also add a little walk-through video by Derek Fields below that might help.
