      We hope that you will enjoy it!

      It would be useful for me to support openid authentication in Jira. I plan to build set of all web services based on openid authentication, so external users can use own openid server, and they do not need to register specifically with my Jira.

      OpenID would be similar to external LDAP - it only manages passwords. If Jira is in Public mode then new users may get some default user role (e.g. jira-users) after first log on, if Private then unknown OpenIDs should be just rejected.

            Hi Dave,
            I am curious to know if we have any plans to have this feature soon? (Last update was on 2016, hoping the situation may have got better?)
            We're in evaluation phase, (and eventually may move to cloud instance, but at the moment) we have a $10 Service Desk self-managed server. Without native support for this feature, the plugin may cost about $175 (for 100 users) – isn't quite in the right proportion of the server pricing itself. While I'm not looking for any off-pricing on the plugin, I do have high expectations from Atlassian products in general and definitely expected OpenID provider support built-in.
            Thanks!

            While OpenID add-on "looks great" it does not work as expected and has general flaw — it doesn't set "remember me" token which cause serve usage annoyance, especially for Windows users, where application is considered to be quit once all its windows are closed.

            The plug-in for OpenID looks great, unfortunately it is not available in onDemand instances.
            Besides voting for this issue, what can I do to push for this issue to be solved (included in onDemand)

            Is there a supported, native alternative to OpenID which achieves a similar flow using Crowd i.e. what's in use when authenticating at id.atlassian.com ?

            Just to let you know I've published a plugin that addresses this issue https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.pawelniewiadomski.jira.jira-openid-authentication-plugin

            Any progress here? This would be REALLY helpful for OSS projects. Many users don't like to register just to report an simple issue.

            Gregory, you should contact ... Brian McGinnis, Director of Engineering, Janrain, Inc. (e: mcginnis@janrain.com  |  w: 503-488-6754 x.52)

            Janrain developed this plugin for Kodak but it still needs a little work to remove that which is Kodak specific. In addition, added work on documentation is needed to ensure maximum developer productivity in use of the plugin.

            I encourage you to contact Brian and determine cost to get this to a general use state. Kodak has gotten this plugin 75% of the way to general use.Someone else needs to carry the ball the rest of the way.
