Docs totally unclear - How to setup SSO for portal access only external org customer users?

K_ June 3, 2024

We want to be able to set up SSO access for multiple users from multiple companies each to have access to their own service desks within Jira portal. 

We're reading this and associated pages: Configure SAML single sign-on for portal-only customers | Atlassian Support

Does this mean we have to run our own ADFS server for all our customers, or how can we let them use their own MS login to join our service desk? 

Do we somehow need to sync everyone in all external customers into our JIRA directory? 

Can we have multiple external federated auth. providers? 

Or how do we do it please?

Hey @K_ 

I'm Ashwini from the miniOrange team.

We understand your requirement to set up SSO access for multiple users from various companies, each having access to their own service desks within the Jira portal.

Based on your query:

You don't need to run your own ADFS server for all customers. Instead, you can configure multiple IDPs to allow users to log in using their own Microsoft credentials.

You can connect multiple IDPs in your instance and not create their ADFS accounts. The customers will ultimately lead to your Jira directory itself.

For further assistance and detailed steps, please reach out to us at atlassiansupport@xecurify.com.

Looking forward to helping you set this up.

PS: I am working for miniOrange, one of the Top SSO vendors for Atlassian Marketplace.

Thanks,
Ashwini
