Provision and sync users from an identity provider
Make changes in your identity provider to users and groups and sync them to your Atlassian organization.
Limitations of Azure AD for nested groups
The ability to connect Microsoft Azure AD to Atlassian and begin syncing your nested group structure is available to participants in an early access program. Azure AD for nested groups will be generally available soon. Check updates on progress for release date
Support for identity providers
You cannot connect more than one Azure Active Directory identity provider that flattens your nested groups. You can switch from Atlassian’s current SCIM solution to Atlassian’s custom integration for nested groups. Learn more about switching from SCIM to Azure AD for nested groups
Available attributes for mapping
The custom integration for Azure AD uses fixed attribute mapping between Azure Active Directory and your Atlassian cloud organization. This works with default mapping in Azure AD, but if you configure some custom mapping, you cannot use the custom integration for Azure AD.
