Connecting Azure AD Attributes with Azure AD

Learn how to synchronize Azure AD Attributes and Azure Active Directory (AD)

Connecting Jira internal directory to Microsoft Azure AD allows you to synchronize user accounts, so that their Azure AD attributes can be displayed in Jira and on the Customer portal. To establish the connection, you’ll need to provide information generated during the app registration on the Azure portal.

Steps

To connect Azure AD to Jira:

1. In Jira, navigate to Jira settings > Apps.
2. In the Azure AD Attributes section, click Configuration.
3. Provide the following parameters:
   • Directory (tenant) ID
   • Application (client) ID
   • Client secret
     Note

     Learn how to obtain these parameters in the App registration chapter.

4. To make sure the connection with Azure is established, click Authentication test.
5. Click Save.
   

   

Result

The Azure AD Attributes app is synchronized with Microsoft Azure AD.

Purge user associations
