The Challenge
Challenges Managing Users and Groups across their Atlassian Cloud and DC Suite
BetterBe was looking for a product to manage users and groups across their Atlassian Cloud and DC Suite, compounded by a large user base in Okta. Synchronizing these entities between Okta and Jira Cloud & DC proved daunting, especially with variations in group names. BetterBe turned to miniOrange for a solution.
We used our decade-long expertise in Atlassian user and group management to develop a custom user provisioning solution that met BetterBe's specific requirements. This included features for filtering incoming user and group requests from Okta and applying regex transformations to group names as needed.
Solutions we provided to BetterBe
SCIM for User/Group Sync
The miniOrange Usersync for DC and Cloud is a solution designed to seamlessly synchronize users and groups between identity providers and Atlassian's directory. Our real-time synchronization ensures that any changes made in Okta are immediately reflected in the Atlassian Directory, simplifying user management for administrators.
MiniOrange’s solution offered the exact feature set BetterBe needed, including Portal-only LDAP sync, Regex on incoming groups and users, detailed Audit Logs, and Manual Group mapping. Our exceptional support, coupled with cost-effective pricing, made our solution an obvious choice for BetterBe.
How It Works
The miniOrange Usersync solution offers a hassle-free setup process, allowing Atlassian admins to configure it within minutes. Our intuitive interface and streamlined workflow ensure simplicity and ease of use for administrators at every step of the process.
Our solution takes care of the synchronization process between Okta and Atlassian, eliminating the need for constant monitoring by administrators. Here's how it works:
- Creation of SCIM Application: We start by creating a new SCIM application within BetterBe's Okta. Simultaneously, a new "SCIM" application is established within our solution on the Atlassian side.
- Successful Connection: The two applications are seamlessly connected using the details provided in our Usersync solution, ensuring a smooth integration process.
- Configuring Filter in Usersync Plugin: The BetterBe team configures the filter settings in our plugin according to their needs. The administrator enters the regex pattern they want to apply to incoming groups from Okta. Our plugin then transforms the incoming groups accordingly.
- Assignment of Users and Groups: BetterBe's team assigns specific users and groups that need synchronization at the Atlassian side to the newly created application in Okta.
- Transformation of Incoming Groups: Our plugin ensures seamless synchronization of users and groups into Atlassian’s directory, applying specified regex and/or filters. The newly created groups align with the regex applied in our Usersync application, preventing duplicate creation.
- Automated Replication of Changes: Any modifications made within our application are instantly replicated into the Atlassian Directory, ensuring real-time synchronization of user base and permissions. Ultimately, in Atlassian’s directory, the group is matched with the pre-existing jira-users name.
Key Benefits
- Eliminated Duplicate Entries: No duplicate users or groups were created, reducing licensing costs for both Cloud and Data Center.
- Reduced Administrative Burden: Administrators no longer needed to manage Okta and Atlassian separately, simplifying operations.
- Seamless Synchronization: The solution provided effortless user, group, and permission management through its synchronization capabilities.
- Intuitive User Interface: The user-friendly interface minimized manual effort and streamlined management processes.
