      Dear Customers,

      Thank you for your patience as our developers work hard to deliver this feature. I’m pleased to announce that our Support team now has the internal resources to rename SCIM groups on your behalf. This serves as a temporary workaround until the feature is fully implemented.

      If you need groups to be renamed, please contact us at https://support.atlassian.com/contact/ with the current group names and their desired new names. We’ll be happy to assist you with these changes.

      Please note, we can apply SCIM group renames for any Organization on the Centralized UI or any single site Organization on the Original UI. Unfortunately we can't apply it to multi-site Original UI Organizations. You can identify your UI here

      Problem Definition

      Ability to rename groups after they've synced to the organization from an identity provider.

      Suggested Solution

      The customer wants to rename groups after they've synced to the organization from an identity provider.
      Org audit log should also reflect this changes for monitoring large scale changes.

      Why this is important

      The customer wants the renamed groups to appear in the organization from an identity provider.

      Workarounds

      • Use the synced group and just know that it will have the old name in Atlassian Cloud. Group memberships will remain up to date.
      • Create a new group with the new name in your identity provider and sync that new group.
      • Delete the group in Atlassian Cloud, then sync the group again from your identity provider.

            Thank you for all of your feedback.

            The ability to rename groups will be part of our SCIM platform rearchitecture project. Delivery of that project will be completed in various milestones currently scheduled throughout late 2025 and 2026.

            We recognize that this timeline is not reasonable given the high friction associated with group rename, so we will also be providing a short-term solution. This short-term solution will be to provide APIs to assist with group rename.

            We expect to launch these APIs in CY25 H1 and will be working to deliver them as quickly as possible. We will provide more details here as we have them. Thank you again!
