We’re renaming ‘products’ to ‘apps’

Atlassian 'products’ are now ‘apps’. You may see both terms used across our documentation as we roll out this terminology change. Here’s why we’re making this change

Make changes to a managed account

You can edit the details of a managed account to keep it updated. If you don’t manage an account, only the user can update their account details. What are managed accounts?

If your organization provisions users from an identity provider, you can only update their account details from your identity provider.

Who can do this?
Role: Organization admin
Atlassian Cloud: All plans
Atlassian Government Cloud: Available

  3. Select the account to open their profile.

  4. Select the field you want to update. You may need to select Show more details to show more fields.

  5. Select the checkmark to save your changes.

Update email address

If you want to update the email address of a managed account to an email address on another domain, make sure you’ve verified the domain for that email. You can’t update the email address to one on a domain you don’t own.

  2. Select Directory > Managed accounts.

You can automate this process with the Set email API.

Reset two-step verification

Force a user’s device to log out

This is not a permanent action. Users can always log in with this device again.

  2. Select Directory > Managed accounts.

  3. Select the account to open their profile.
