When using Okta for User Deprovisioning, will deleting user in Okta also delete in Atlassian?

[Bryan Urias]

Currently looking at Okta for User provisioning. Wasn't able to clearly find something in the documentation if deleting a user in Okta will also delete the same user in Atlassian, or will their profile simply go into a "deactivated" state? 

Thanks!

Hey Bryan,

I understand you're looking for User Provisioning using Okta. To provision users on Jira Cloud you will need a plugin installed on your Jira to fulfill the provisioning. 

I'd recommend you to go with mO Jira User Sync Plugin which supports provisioning via Okta and comes with a wide range of provisioning features like -

- Users and groups provisioning/de-provisioning

- Configurable provisioning options(import users/update users /activate users/deactivate users)

- Scheduled/Real-time Provisioning

- Many More

This plugin will not delete but deactivate the users in Jira if you delete them on Okta.

We'd love to give you a demo of this plugin and make sure you have a seamless experience. Feel free to reach out to us at atlassiansupport@xecurify.com to schedule one or for any questions!

P.S - I work for miniOrange, a Top Vendor on the Atlassian Marketplace

Thanks,
