User provisioning not updating the group - account association

      Issue Summary

      User provisioning not updating the account <--> group association in a specific scenario. 

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a new user in Azure - make sure it is disabled
      2. Create a group in Azure and assign this group to the user
      3. Assign "Atlassian Cloud" app to the group created in step 2
      4. User provisioning will create the Group in Atlassian but user will not be added to it as Azure will say the object is not active in source
      5. Enable the user in Azure
      6. User provisioning will not change anything in Atlassian
      7. I had to do on demand provisioning for the user - this did create the user in Atlassian but in default group (all members ...) but not in the group to which user is added in Azure!

      Expected Results

      Account should be added to the group once the user is enabled in Azure

      Actual Results

      Account is not added to the expected group

      Workaround

      Re-add the user to the impacted group in Azure (and do an on-demand provisioning)

            You can use Provisioning on demand to fix this without having to update the user:

            1. In Azure/Entra ID select provision on demand
            2. Select the group the user is missing from in Atlassian Cloud
            3. Select to provision specific users
            4. Select up to 5 impacted users

            The provisioning will say the group was skipped due to RedundantImport, but the add member operation will still take place for the missing members.

            Can't understand how a big tech company like Atlassian can't have direct contacts for things like this. We pay a lot of $ for Atlassian, same for Microsoft and still need to open multiples cases for features that are "standalone" in every other SaaS solution.

            This is impacting our IAM cycle for the whole Atlassian suite.
            I suggest the bug gets some attention soon since I am sure other companies are affected
            This bug effects all Enterprise customers

            Workaround takes about an hour to fix for each user because of the sync

            dae5a2657689 this seems like an issue on the Azure side. If they sent a PATCH request with that user then there is an issue on our side if they didnt send the user then we cant do anything. Can you confirm for me that Azure sent a group PATCH request when the user was deactivated (should be available in Azure logs) otherwise please let me know the times for the following event in UTC and I can look through the requests for this directory and track down whether or not they sent a PATCH request when the deactivated user was added.

            1. when the user was added to the group in a deactivated state in Azure AD.

            Thanks!
