Import Users from LDAP

devops Nexi

Hi,

We just install a new Crowd server and we want to use it for the SSO.

We already have our Jira server with defined groups and users from LDAP.

We try to import users and group from Jira to Crowd but we have groups empty when users are from LDAP.

How can we procced ?

Hi @devops Nexi,

Could you describe how did you do the import of users and groups from Jira to Crowd? Also could you describe in a more detail how your setup looks like? I assume that you have a remote LDAP directory connected in Crowd and you also have an internal directory in Crowd?

Did you previously used local groups in Jira?

We have our remote LDAP directory connected in Crowd and you also have an internal directory .

Groups are defined locally in Jira.

To import ,i select import Users in crowd and passes are shown on pictures

I assume that your setup looks more or less like this:

If so, I believe that not all of your users are defined in LDAP and this is why you need this internal directory in Crowd.

You manage groups only in Jira but not in Crowd?

If the above is fair description of your setup, I think that the reason why your groups are empty when your users are from LDAP is that Jira does not support membership aggregation as Crowd (as described here).

It seems to me that you have two different sets of users, one set is from LDAP and another is internally created and managed. You would also like to manage groups for both LDAP and internal users. On top of that you would like to build a SSO.

Is the set of users in LDAP and internal directory the same?
