Atlassian Access: External Users that are not part of our domain

[Jackson Lum]

Hi,

We are interested in using Atlassian Access SSO. My organization is ACME.COM. So anyone with the email XXX@acme.com will be able to authenticate. We have a need to collaborate with external users that are not part of our domain. What are my options?

In reading the documentation online, I found:

"You can give access to users with Atlassian accounts from domains that you don't own, such as sarah@vendor.com, but those users won't be subject to the Atlassian Access policies you've set."

Is there any additional documentation related to my inquiry? I am thinking that the only option I have is setting those user up with acme.com domain accounts and password so that they could be authenticated. Is there an option for the external users to purchase their own licenses and then logon to my JIRA and Confluence Cloud?
