Associating Atlassian user group with AD security group to allow for free access to Compass

[Karim]

We are trying to use the free version of Compass (3 full users) to try it out at our organization.  But in order to do a real trial, we would need to give view access to other users which, as I understand it, is allowed as part of the Compass product.  In other words, we want no more than three people administering it and many more looking at the information.  

First, is my understanding of the licensing correct?

Second, we have our Atlassian instance linked to an azure group.  My understanding is that the relationship between the Atlassian groups that are enabled for a given user and the AD group is done through AD group attributes.  If that is true, which Atlassian group would I need to give a user in order for them to have "basic" or free access to Compass?

Thanks,
Karim

Hey @Karim 

If you got to your Org Admin panel and then go to Products > Products you can stipulate which groups should provide what access.

You can configure the AD groups to give the access directly, rather than the Atlassian groups, and you can choose to have your free one as the default. Just make sure you map the group to the role assigned correctly.

Below is a screenshot of my Product page for Jira.

Thanks Jovin.  It looks like the group I need to add in my case is `compass-basic-users-[org]` which turned out to work to add users with view access to compass
