Hello,
Looking into documentation on moving to Cloud, and https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/synchronizing-data-from-external-directories-938847064.html
Do i understand correctly that for example we have currently local LDAP authentication to Jira, so after adding additional Jira Crowd user directory, it will sync LDAP users with Jira
access to cloud?
It says to :
Sync external directory users to Jira. If you're unable to do so, get in touch with our support team.
Take a fresh backup of your server
Use Site Import to migrate.
Wont site import overwrite previously migrated user database ?
Hello Brian!
Thanks for the details on what you're doing and planning to do. From the links you sent I do see the issue, the documents you have are for Server/DC and not explicit to cloud.
On the link for Access recommendations I would suggest reviewing the following notes which will help to clarify you're ask:
Before you begin
Before you decide how to migrate your users, make sure you:
Read our other documentation on user management in cloud and server and what user management set up you need in cloud.
Review how users, groups and permissions are migrated if you plan to use either the Jira or Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant to migrate.
Read the section on Atlassian Access recommendations if you plan to use an external identity provider.
It's not currently possible to migrate a subset of users and groups using Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant or Jira site import. If you use these methods, you will need to import all users and groups. Read the information below for more details.
Since you'll be using LDAP, you'll want to set up Access which will manage/house your users. When you do the Site import (Yes, the users may get overwritten in Jira) you'll be able to map your imported Jira users with your Access users.
I hope this information proves helpful!
Regards,
Stephen Sifers
