How do organizations work for Atlassian Government?

Atlassian organizations bring together your company’s users and products. As an organization admin, you manage the Atlassian accounts of your employees and the products that belong to your organization.

Manage products for an organization

When you get access to products in your Atlassian Government environment, you can manage them from your organization. The products that can be part of your organization include Jira, Jira Service Management, and Confluence.

When you manage products from this central location, you have access to all administration settings and can view activities across your organization from the audit log.

Manage user accounts for an organization

Users aren’t tied to any one product, which means that you can give product product access to Atlassian accounts outside your organization, as log as the account is within the isolated boundary.

Users become tied to your organization when you can claim ownership of their accounts. When you do, they become your organization’s managed accounts, but can still access products outside your organization. How to verify a domain for your organization

You have full control over managed accounts, which includes the following activities:

  • Update email address and name of managed accounts

  • Delete or deactivate managed accounts

  • Update idle session duration

  • Require single sign-on

  • Sync users from identity provider

When you sync users from an external directory, your settings impact how those accounts log into your products, as shown in the illustration.
