Sync Google Apps Directory with Jira Server Instance

[Travis Ricks]

Hi,

We do not have JIRA Cloud/OnDemand. Does anyone know how to go about syncing our Google Apps users for a JIRA Server install? (version 6.3)

Thanks,
Travis

Hi Travis. The easiest way to handle this would be through crowd as it's a built in option.

We successfully connected google Suite to JIRA Server to enable SAML and user and Group Syncing with resolution's plugins. 

for user and group sync:  User Directory Sync - Jira

we also ended up switching to their SAML Plugin too.

Hi @Christian Roestel

thanks for the mention of our Plugin - great to hear it worked well for you.

Cheers,
Christian
