Crowd Using SCIM User And Group Provisioning For G-Suite
User Sync & Group Sync app provisions user and group information from G Suite to Crowd. Users, groups, and directory details can be provisioned using SCIM. SCIM provisioning works based on events performed on IDP. This way the administrator only needs to manage user accounts in G Suite. This reduces the administration time required to create users and groups in Atlassian modules such as Crowd.
