How can I use existing JIRA User Profile Photo Image on Confluence User Profile?

[Arnold Chang]

Hi,

Is there any way to prevent end users from manually uploading their photo image to their Confluence User Profile by using the existing one in their JIRA User Profile?

I also user a Crowd server to enable SSO for my JIRA and Confluence instances.

Regards,

Arnold

This doesn't directly answer your question (although I believe the answer is no), but Crowd does have a long standing feature request to have Crowd host all avatars for the other products: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CWD-2165

Thank you Caspar. The long standing feature request made me more frustrated.

Is there any plug-in to be considered as a workaround in your view?How about Confluence Avatar Server? https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.cutlass.confluence.plugin.rest.cas<br< a="">>

I'm not very up to date on the plugin situation for Confluence / JIRA (I'm a Crowd developer), so I don't know, sorry.

[Arnold Chang]

No problems at all. So when will we be able to get the feature from Crowd server in your view?

[Caspar Krieger]

I'm sure this is not what you want to hear, but It's not on our roadmap at the moment, so I can't give you a helpful answer. All I can say is that if it's not on the roadmap, it's unlikely to happen in the next 6 months (not impossible because roadmaps do change, but definitely unlikely because it's not a small change to make across the products).

Thank you Caspar. I do appreciate your honest answer.
