What's new

Reach 100% accuracy in user attribute mapping from your IdP into the Atlassian application! We have created two new methods to transform attributes.

With SAML SSO 4.0, we made mapping attributes sent by your identity provider easier and more powerful. We added built-in IdP specific transformation presets and common transformations can be chosen with a single click. For advanced use cases, we allow to add custom expression that we will develop within support cases and if that is not enough, you can use transformations based on Groovy scripts.

Please see https://wiki.resolution.de/go/saml4featureOverview for a detailed overview.

Upgrade consideration

  • Since SAML Single Sign On 4.0.0 is a major update, please make sure to have backups.
  • We have introduced the configuration version 10 with a lot of structural changes. If you are using the unofficial REST API to export, import or modify the JSON configuration, make sure to update your scripts. Please contact our support for more information.
  • In previous versions, a successful single user sync with UserSync was enough for the user to be logged in even if you had wrong transformations in the SAML SSO configuration. This has changed now, SAML SSO must be able to find the user with the data from the SAML response.
  • If you have any problems after upgrading to version 4.0.0 you can always go back to the latest 3.x release with your old configuration. The old configuration is preserved during the upgrade and is available again as soon as you downgrade to 3.x. If you run into any problems please contact our support.
