      Atlassian Update – 13 March 2023

      Hey everyone,

      We are happy to announce that the rollout of group rename feature has been finished to 100% of all organizations on the new administration experience, hence, after 20 years and cake 9 days, we will finally close this feature request for cloud.

      A good reminder that there are still dependencies in Jira to make group rename perfect, and those are tracked in detail on Group Rename dependencies tracking (ID-8092).

      For those customers still on the legacy administration experience, we are committed to unblock you, all dependencies for migration into the new experience should be addressed throughout 2023, current end date on December, as a dependency is unblocked and shipped to production, we will already migrate the organizations that were unblocked. Please, feel free to ask your questions or concerns on this ticket, even after it is closed, I will commit to answer any questions for the time being on a best effort.

      Thank you, as always.

      Atlassian Update – July 11 2024

      We are happy to announce that 100% of Cloud organizations, including those on the legacy administration experience, can now access the ability to rename groups.

      Original request description:

      As a JIRA administrator I am responsible for managing a large installation with multiple users and groups. Given the dynamic nature of my environment it is very difficult for me to create the correct user group name which can be used for many projects later on. I need to be able to rename the user groups, to reflect the changes my organisation undergoes.

            Hello ! 

            Just a quick question regarding this feature 

            Does the renaming is also available when we rename a group from the active directory ? (Managed groups) 

            Thank you !

            This is FINALLY available in our instance! 

            Navigate to Atlassian Administration > Directory > Groups > [Group]

            There is a new option under the ... (ellipsis) menu to Edit Group Name.

            If the group is associated with any Jira queries/items, you will get a notification that the group name cannot be changed.

            Hi f9b72c0781f5,

            That is strange, if you are seeing the interface from the second screenshot, you should have the feature. Please open a support request on support.atlassian.com so we can investigate further!

            Thanks

            Hey 198a0d57c156,

            We actually have this feature request ACCESS-800 that will be used in the future for group renames in SCIM, you can follow it for when we send an update once we start work on this feature, somehow I missed it earlier, sorry!

            Thanks!

            Hi Rodrigo.

            If I compare the Groups screenshot from here https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Atlassian-Access-articles/User-management-for-cloud-admins-just-got-easier/ba-p/1576592?lightbox-message-images-1576592=125122i220A1DD8DC3FDBEF with our site, I see it's the same. Why could it be, then, that we don't have the option to rename groups?

            How to request a migration ? Should I open a support ticket ?

            You can open a support ticket and our support team will work with you to give you options on how to move to the new UI.

            Eventually all customers will be moved to the new UI. When depends on the setup of the customer's org and admin roles.

            Thank you for the update Rodrigo. 

            Don't see groups under the directory so we must be on the legacy admin experience

            I was looking under user management> groups

            **Will this ticket be updated once EVERYONE is able to edit groups?
