I contacted Atlassian Support, only to be told to post this here as I have a free account.. My personal account is a free account! I purchased Atlassian Access this morning on my company account. But because it's dead, I cannot raise a ticket there. This is absolutely rubbish support. I had to purchase Atlassian Access to even able SAML SSO.
I enabled SAML SSO on Confluence Cloud / Atlassian Access to enable SSO with Azure. Stupidly, I entered the URLs manually and switched the order of the URLs. Now I cannot login to my account. Nor, recover my account. Nor, raise a ticket with support. Nor, can I use "Can't login?" as it's "having trouble logging me in."
Based on this single interaction, I think it will be time for us to migrate away from Atlassian and I intend to encourage other technical colleagues to do the same. It would have taken someone a minute to read my original request, and even less time to realise my request was not insane.
My original ticket was: CA-1215457
Disappointed user.
I understand the frustration here, there's a loopy hole in the support process for the cheap/free accounts and you've fallen into it.
There are problems that need back-end access to the services, which only Atlassian can do, so you need a support call, but you get pushed to the Community who don't have that access, and we can only say "you'll need to talk to Atlassian", which just puts you back where you started. (A cynic might argue that "you get what you pay for")
The community picks these up and refers them to Atlassian for direct attention instead of looping them, I've done that now.
Yes, this was resolved - thank you.
I'm sure your other customers and potential customers would certainly appreciate not being bounced directly to the forums for an issue which has no hope of being resolved here.
This single interaction has changed my view and relationship with Atlassian. And while it might just come across as a frustrated free customer.. I have used and championed Atlassian products for the past 13 years, managed our large corporate account and supported its uptake. While a lot has changed in that time, it is quickly becoming a solution I can no longer champion primarily due to the new sales direction, and support issues such as this. I really get the sense that Atlassian has lost its roots.
