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.

Access
You have the possibility to allow the access to the application on a Role-based policy. In our documentation, we will use the Role → Default (this means that everyone who is a part of the Default role has access to the application).
The next step is to copy the SAML Metadata. Just go to More Actions → SAML Metadata. It’s enough to hover over SAML Metadata, do a right mouse click and choose Copy Link Location.
Finishing the Configuration - Wizard
Now, you will paste the App Federation Metadata URL you have obtained before. Paste the App Federation Metadata URL in the "Metadata URL" text field.
You can also configure the plugin without the metadata XML URL. Please choose another option from the dropdown menu and proceed as the wizard guides you.
Afterwards, click on "Import".
Click on "Next" to continue.
Click on Save & Next.
Now it is time to test your configuration.
Testing SSO
The wizard also allows to test the Single Sign On. Just follow the steps to test if the login works as expected.
Click on "Start test" to proceed.
Copy the orange marked link and open a new incognito/private tab or a different web browser. Then, paste the link and navigate to it.
SSO Redirection
As a last step, you can set the Enable SSO Redirect option. If set, all users will be redirected to Single Sign On, thus they will be logged in via the IdP. Click on Save & Close to finish the configuration.
