Pro Tips:

  • You can select which data types you would like to import. This way you can decrease the amount of data transferred to your Assets.

  • Please note that if you have a large number of Azure AD users or groups, this import will take time. We suggest testing it outside of the busy hours when JSM Assets is not used heavily.

  • If you didn’t filter Users and Groups on the Source tab, it may be a good time to think and configure before clicking the Start Import button.

...

If your users are members of more than 20 groups then you may disable the “Full Throttle” and use other features such as “Scaled Up” or “Import Booster”. follow the step-by-step guide for:

Pro Tip:

  • We recommend importing manually first by clicking the “Start Import“ button and measuring the import duration. In case a full import takes long time (i.e. more than an hour), or if there are multiple imports scheduled at the same time in your JSM Site, then hourly scheduling may not be the best option. Prefer Daily scheduling in such case which is the most common import schedule among the JSM customers.

Note

Important note regarding daily imports

Daily imports are commonly scheduled for late night hours (00:00-06:00) when there is no heavy load on the system. However, it is also good to know that these times are also used for the JSM/Assets version updates by Atlassian. In case there is a conflict, the import process fails. You would see the error message in your logs. Please check your import flow daily and configure the Notify Me feature if you want to get notified when there is an error.
