Integrate with Gong

Use JumpCloud SAML Single Sign On (SSO) to give your users convenient but secure access to all their web applications with a single set of credentials. Automatically provision, update and deprovision users and groups in Gong from JumpCloud using the Identity Management (SCIM) integration. Leverage this integration to centralize user lifecycle, user identity, and group management in JumpCloud for Gong. Save time and avoid mistakes, as well as potential security risks, related to manually creating users.

Group Management Considerations

Enabling Group Management

You must select the Enable management of User Groups and Group Membership in this application option to manage groups and group membership in the application from JumpCloud.

Group Provisioning and Syncing 

• Empty groups are not created.
• JumpCloud takes over management of existing groups in the application when the user group name in JumpCloud matches the name of the group in the application.
• All user groups associated with the application in JumpCloud are synced. Syncing occurs whenever there is a membership or group change event.
• Group renaming is supported.
• If a user group is disassociated from the application in JumpCloud, syncing immediately stops and the group is left as-is in the application. All members of that user group are deactivated in the application unless they are associated with another active application group that is managed from JumpCloud.

Group Deletion

• Managed groups deleted in JumpCloud are deleted in the application.
• All members of the deleted group are deactivated in the application, unless they are associated with another active application group that is managed from JumpCloud.

Disabling Group Management

• You can disable group and group membership management by unchecking the Enable management of User Groups and Group Membership in this application option.
• The managed groups and group membership are left as-is in the application.
• JumpCloud stops sending group membership information for the user, but the user’s identity will continue to be managed from JumpCloud.

Authorizing User SSO Access

Users are implicitly denied access to applications. After you connect an application to JumpCloud, you need to authorize user access to that application. You can authorize user access from the Application Configuration panel or from the Groups Configuration panel. 

To authorize user access from the Application Configuration panel

1. Log in to the JumpCloud Admin Portal.
2. Go to USER AUTHENTICATION > SSO Applications, then select the application to which you want to authorize user access.
3. Select the User Groups tab. If you need to create a new group of users, see Get Started: User Groups.
4. Select the check box next to the group of users you want to give access.
5. Click save. 

To learn how to authorize user access from the Groups Configuration panel, see Authorize Users to an SSO Application.
