    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Crowd Embedded doesn't currently synchronise a user's primary group, as per the attached screenshot. It looks like this is because it's not a memberOf object, as in the sample LDIF below:

      version: 1
      
      dn: CN=David Currie,CN=Users,DC=sydney,DC=atlassian,DC=com

      Can you please improve the Embedded Crowd engine in JIRA so that it imports the primary group of the user? Thanks!

      Workaround

      Set up the User Directory so that it uses the Default Group Membership functionality. This will require a permission setting of Read Only, with Local Groups. This won't bring over the Primary Group, however it will let you set a default group for all users.
