[Saravanan Ravikumar]

Hello,
We are using  currently JIRA V6.3.15 and we planned to move new version with new authentication.

We use LDAP for authentication and which is integrated with opemam for authentication. So i need to know what will be available and new authentication methods in new version. help me out

Same as 7.1 ad below - internal, Crowd and LDAP support built in, with the option to add others via add-ons etc.

So you mean, Apart from LDAP we use new authentication such as Internal and Crowd ?

am i correct ?

[Saravanan Ravikumar]

Why because we are still using V6.3.15  we plan to move 7.2 with new authentication. 

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Same as 7.1 and below.  No change.

So you mean, Apart from LDAP we use new authentication such as Internal and Crowd ?

Oh, I see, you've edited the question so my answer does not really answer it any more.

No, you're not correct.  As I already said, there are no changes to the authentication methods available.  Your existing ldap stuff will continue to work in the same way going from 6.3 to 7.2
