Atlassian support does not cover the configurations listed below.

Atlassian Crowd

Crowd is Atlassian's single sign-on (SSO) and user management solution. For the initial release of the SharePoint Connector, we made a decision to delay full support for Crowd in favour of Microsoft's Single Sign-On Service (Microsoft SSOSrv). At the time, we felt that Microsoft SSOSrv's tight integration with SharePoint was a more compelling feature for SharePoint customers.

As the SharePoint Connector matures, we are now looking at expanding our support to reach a broader customer base. We hope to support Crowd for SSO in the future.

If you are interested in this feature, we encourage you to vote for the feature request in our JIRA issue tracker: CSI-588.

SiteMinder and other Single Sign-On Management Solutions

We have tested the connector with the following single sign-on solutions from Microsoft:

  • Single Sign-On Service, provided with MOSS 2007.
  • Secure Store Service provided with SharePoint Server 2010 (available with version 1.2 and later of the SharePoint Connector).

We have not tested any other single sign-on products. If you are interested in support for other SSO solutions, we encourage you to vote for the relevant request if it already exists in our JIRA issue tracker or create a new request. When voting or adding a request, please describe your environment.

  • Request for SiteMinder integration: CSI-218

SharePoint Forms-Based Authentication

The SharePoint Connector cannot connect to SharePoint sites that use an ASP.NET Forms authentication provider. We may add support for this configuration in the future. If you are interested in this feature, we encourage you to vote for the feature request in our JIRA issue tracker: CSI-590.
