Dear Team ,

We are using Jira cloud instance , we need to enable SSO for our instance without using Plugin. We are currently using LDAP configuration .Is it possible to achieve the SSO enablement without using plugin. Please suggest ASAP.

Hi @Naveen kumar ,

The only way to have SSO on cloud is to use Atlassian Access.

Not a plugin persé but still something you'll need to license extra.

Is there any tutorials or steps to be followed to enable SSO . Please advise

So that i will try to get the access from Atlassian 

[Pavel Junek]

Yes, here it is: Single sign-on in Atlassian Access - Configure SAML single sign-on with an identity provider 

Atlassian Access is paid app from Atlassian.

Just to confirm that, there is no work around right apart from using a plugin or Atlassian license right ?

[Pavel Junek]

Unfortunately, there is no other option - Atlassian deliberately made Atlassian Access for this solution as the only possible way for the Cloud.

Ok for server side  ?

Hi Navin,

Atlassian Access is not available for the Server edition of Jira.

You can connect your LDAP system with Jira using SSO. Refer to this for more details.

You'll need to install an add-on for the server versions of JIRA to accomplish SSO within Jira.
