Hi everyone,

We're closing this request as a duplicate of ACCESS-577, which will provide an improve audit log of user managements across Atlassian Cloud sites (including user invitations and changes to group memberships). We consider API access for this audit log within the scope of that issue, so when it is available, we will announce it there.

We're closing this issue because the scope of the request is specifically around an API for reporting on changes. If you are interested in an API for managing users and groups in Jira Cloud, we're pleased to announce that documentation for the User provisioning (SCIM) API is now available on developer.atlassian.com. The API is an implementation of the SCIM specification and is intended to be used to sync users and groups from an identity provider to an Atlassian organization. Once you have linked an Atlassian Cloud site (like example.atlassian.net) to your organization, users and groups will be synced to your site and you can use them to control access to Jira and Confluence Cloud as well as permissions within those products. Learn more about how automatic user provisioning works with Atlassian Cloud.

There are several key benefits to automating user provisioning for Atlassian Cloud:

• It saves you time as an administrator by automating the process of creating and removing Atlassian accounts for your users
• It improves security by reducing errors in the provisioning/deprovisioning process
• It can help reduce costs by ensuring you are not billed for users who are no longer active

The SCIM API is intended for customers who are not already using one of our supported identity providers. We currently support Okta and are actively working on support for Azure Active Directory and Onelogin. If you are using one of these identity providers, we recommend using the supported Atlassian app for these identity providers as this will simplify the configuration process.

We're actively working in this area and will share another update on the SCIM API feature request (ID-6305) when support for additional identity providers is available.

Hi Diego

I have this issue as well, https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-67118 but this issue is for group add and remove users.

I have issue to delete group https://jiracloudconnect.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/group?groupname=Ylgdprlqcw

We are facing error while deleting group.
Error Code: 400 with
{"errorMessages":["Cannot delete group, as all directories are read-only."],"errors":{}}

Thanks
Varsha

Hi varsha.mane976916654, I'm sorry to hear that you are still having problems with JIRA's REST API. It is possible that error has the same root cause as https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-67118 . Please watch or comment on that issue.

Thank you.

Hi Diego

Thanks Diego, we will check ID-6305 for update..

Hi Varsha,

We have not announced a release date for those new APIs, sorry. We understand that you are not the only customer who would like to have supported and standard user management APIs. Please watch ID-6305 to receive updates as soon as they are available.

We also understand that group/membership management is an important requirement and we will take that into consideration as part of ID-6305.

Thank you.

Hi Diego

Thanks for this information..
But by when will have new Atlassian SCIM User Management APIs.
Also want to know that, do we have same api's for Group as well like add user to group and remove user from group.

Thanks
Varsha

Hi Varsha,

I am sorry to hear that you are still experiencing issues with the JIRA User Management APIs. Unfortunately those APIs are currently marked as "experimental" and they may be eventually superseded by new Atlassian SCIM User Management APIs. Please watch ID-6305 for updates.

Thank you.
