Client Creation in the Google Identity Platform

The plugin supports Single-Sign-On with the Google Identity Platform. This includes SSO and the creation of new users with predefined groups. This page describes how to add Jira/Confluence as a client in Google ID.

Client Creation in the Google Identity Platform

To add Jira/Confluence as a client visit the Google API Console. Add a new client by clicking on New Credentials → OAuth client ID. Select Web Application as application type and enter a name for the client (eg. jira). As Authorised JavaScript origins enter the domain under which your application is available without the context path (eg. http://jira.mycompany.com). Add the following two URLs as Authorised Redirect URIs (where http://jira.mycompany.com/ is the root URL with context path of your Jira/Confluence installation):

  • http://jira.mycompany.com/plugins/servlet/oidc/auth

  • http://jira.mycompany.com/plugins/servlet/oidc/iauth

After clicking on Create the client ID and secret will be displayed. You can use these to configure the plugin (under System → OpenID Connect SSO → Preconfigured Providers). Optionally you may add Default Groups if you wish to automatically create new users on their first login.
