Automate Compass User Provisioning
Without SCIM

Compass supports SCIM provisioning, but it is gated behind higher-tier enterprise plans. Stepwork automates Compass provisioning with 98% accuracy — no API required.

SCIM Paywalled
Category: Developer ToolsSign-On: SAMLSCIM: Enterprise-only

Why This Is Painful

Primary: Provisioning + SSO gated behind Atlassian Guard/Access
  • Team membership and ownership don’t map cleanly to SCIM groups
  • Manual access alignment across Atlassian apps
  • Slow offboarding for engineering admin roles

Technical Constraint

SCIM/SSO are controlled at the Atlassian org layer, not Compass-specific. Complexity Vector: SCIM manages users and groups, but key Compass constructs like teams/ownership and cross-tool integrations don’t reliably sync, creating gaps that require UI-level automation to keep access and governance aligned.

How Stepwork Solves This

Avoid upgrading Compass to Atlassian’s enterprise tier just to unlock SCIM and centralized provisioning. Stepwork is the wedge, providing targeted access controls and lifecycle automation around Compass so teams can stay on a lower tier and avoid a premature enterprise upgrade, which is why teams use Stepwork to automate Compass flows with 98% accuracy without needing an API.

Frequently Asked Questions About Compass Provisioning

Does Compass support SCIM?

Compass supports SCIM provisioning, but it is gated behind higher-tier enterprise plans. Many teams don't need a full enterprise upgrade just for provisioning — Stepwork provides SCIM-like automation on any plan.

How do you automate user provisioning in Compass?

Stepwork automates Compass provisioning through interface automation — the same way a human would, but with 98% accuracy and no API required. Record the flow once, and Stepwork runs it on demand or on a schedule.

Is Stepwork secure for Compass?

Yes. Stepwork authenticates to Compass through your existing identity provider (Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, 1Password, etc.) and completes MFA natively — including OTP, passkeys, and push notifications. No separate credentials or service accounts are needed.

What are the risks of manual Compass provisioning?

The primary risk is provisioning + sso gated behind atlassian guard/access. Additional risks include team membership and ownership don’t map cleanly to scim groups, manual access alignment across atlassian apps, slow offboarding for engineering admin roles. Stepwork eliminates these risks by automating the entire provisioning workflow.

Does Stepwork bypass Compass MFA?

No. Stepwork completes MFA exactly like a human user — supporting OTP, passkeys, push notifications, and other methods. It signs in through your existing identity provider via SAML, mirroring your organization's security posture.
