**How to Automate User & License Cleanup Across Atlassian Stack**

In fast-growing organizations that rely on Atlassian tools like Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, or Crowd user management can quickly become a daily headache. 

IT teams often find themselves bogged down with repetitive tasks like activating, deactivating, or removing users—one by one. And when you're dealing with hundreds or even thousands of users, that manual approach isn’t just time-consuming—it’s unsustainable.

Manual user management brings several inefficiencies and risks:

**\- Time-Consuming:** Routine tasks like onboarding, deactivating users, or updating group memberships eat up valuable admin hours.

**\-License Waste:** Inactive users can continue consuming licenses, leading to avoidable expenses.

**\-Security Gaps:** Delays in removing departed users increase the risk of unauthorized access.

**\-Group Complexity:** As user counts grow, managing group permissions and roles becomes increasingly tedious.
