Scenario: a new employee joins an international enterprise. He joins a team in country X. An active directory account is created for this user and the user is assigned to different groups to grant access to diferent tools and also to mark his location in country X. All the groups from the AD are synced into the Atlassian Cloud (Access) and can be used in the Atlassian Suite. I would like to assign the whole group (country-x) to a Holiday Calendar inside Tempo App, so that every new employee in locations X is automatically assigned to the Holiday Calendar of that location. User Groups also could be used for Teams in the Tempo App, of basically for almost everything, where you are using a user selection field.

I Got tired of waiting for this native sync so I ended up writing a custom ScriptRunner script that automatically syncs Atlassian Teams / Jira Groups directly into Tempo Teams.
It completely eliminated the manual updates and reporting errors for our organization
I'm thinking about either clean-packaging this script for other Jira Admins or developing it into a proper Marketplace app. If anyone here is interested or has specific requirements they'd like to see, let me know
This is a must have and I can see that this is activ still from 2021 and we are in 2026 and not implementation is done yet. Hurry up please this is mandatory.
Due to the evolving security requirements, many companies now expect to manage user access directly through their Active Directory (AD).
This approach aligns with their internal governance and simplifies identity management. However, it remains challenging to explain to clients why such a fundamental feature is not yet available by default. Their expectation is that integration with AD should be standard, especially given the increasing emphasis on centralized and secure access control.
With Atlassian moving forward with syncing user groups with native Teams, I think there shouldn't even be a discussion about whether this should be implemented or not. We're getting more and more requests from clients on this topic - to be able to sync groups with Tempo teams.
For me I think a big plus around properly syncing with Atlassian groups (whether AD synced or not) is that your Tempo teams are then always correct. We have had issues with our businesses finance reports being out due to people missing from groups. The whole point is to not have manual effort where possible. It would be great to not have to keep an additional thing manually up to date.
