Jira integrated with AD Authentication. How to enable vendors to look into Jira issue status?

Kagithala Babu Anvesh December 9, 2019

Present we are using AD Authentication for Jira.

1. Clients requesting to enable access on Jira to know the statistics.

2. But As per AD policy, we can't add users from other domains into AD.

Please suggest a way to enable access for vendors  on Jira Project.

Thanks in advacnce
