Important Update Effective February 1, 2024!
Due to recent changes in Jira and Confluence, we've made the tough decision to discontinue the OpenID Connect (OIDC)/OAuth app and no longer provide new versions for the newest Jira/Confluence releases as of January 31, 2024.
This is due to some necessary components no longer shipping with Jira/Confluence, which would require some extensive rewrites of the OIDC App.
Important Update! This app will be discontinued soon!

Step-by-Step Guides
Based on the user provisioning model you need, pick one of the following step-by-step guides.
See a comparison of each model in the table at the page bottom.
- Keycloak with User Sync
Setting up User synchronisation with Keycloak, as well as authentication via SAML - Keycloak with Just-In-Time Provisioning
Setting up authentication via SAML with Keycloak and using Just-in-Time Provisioning to create/update User Accounts during login. - Keycloak with Manual Provisioning
Setting up authentication via SAML with Keycloak for Users that already exist in the Atlassian product.
Some important notes:
Which Step-by-Step Guide you should pick?
Depending on your Atlassian product, you can choose from different user provisioning models.
In general, with Keycloak we support the following ways for user provisioning:
- Just in Time Provisioning allows to create and update users on-the-fly when they log in. See our detailed article for JIT.
- For Manual User Management, the administrator has to create and update users on Okta and your Atlassian product by hand.
We do not recommend it. See our article for Manual User Management.
As of July 15th, 2019, Keycloak is supported by User Sync so that users can be periodically synced from it,
but also when they log in for the first time into your Atlassian product. Read our detailed article for User Sync.
Usually we recommend User Sync for user provisioning, a documentation how to use it will be released very soon.
Model/Function | Admin Effort | Pro's and Con's |
