You are integrating Jira Server with Azure AD over SAML.

Jira Server requires a SAML app to achieve this. Every app vendor lists in their documentation how to get the Entity ID and ACS URL. So the answer is "depends on what app you are using"

For example our EasySSO for Jira app displays these value directly on the SAML configuration screen and we also explicitly list both values in EasySSO SAML with Azure AD and EasySSO SAML Configuration parts of the setup guide.

Hi Prasad,

Please see below article

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/What-is-my-unique-ID/qaq-p/774899

Let me know if that helped. I am not using Azure AD, hence I cannot provide you detailed screenshots.

Regards,

The article you've referred to is for Azure AD SAML SSO in Atlassian Cloud i.e. via Atlassian Access, not for Jira Server

Microsoft does not have SSO plugin for JIRA server, hence I was under the impression that this was for Cloud.

Microsoft has an SSO plugin for Jira Server.

Microsoft Azure Active Directory single sign-on for JIRA v8 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=56506
