Stack: Atlassian stack

Okta disaster recovery for the Atlassian stack

The Atlassian stack — Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, Jira Service Management — typically federates through a single Okta-side Atlassian Cloud app. A single bad change to that app, its SCIM connection, or the group rules feeding it can block engineering across the entire stack simultaneously.

Butterfly captures versioned snapshots of the Okta configuration governing the Atlassian stack — the Atlassian Cloud SAML / OIDC app, the SCIM feed, assigned groups, sign-on policies, and Workflows automations. Restore preview shows the diff before any revert.

What you get

How Butterfly fits Atlassian stack

Atlassian Cloud SSO app is versioned

Every backup captures the Okta-side Atlassian Cloud app integration — SAML signing certificate, attribute mapping, assigned groups, and sign-on policy. This single app gates Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, and Jira Service Management.

SCIM provisioning into the Atlassian organization is versioned

The Okta-to-Atlassian SCIM connection is captured per snapshot. Product-access grants (Jira Software, Confluence, Bitbucket, JSM) are versioned.

Group rules drive Atlassian product access

Group rules are how most teams scale who-can-access-which-Atlassian-product. Butterfly versions every rule.

What goes wrong

Three incidents you have already seen variations of

Sign-on policy change blocks engineering across Jira and Bitbucket

A device-trust tightening caught the engineering group. The team lost access to Jira AND Bitbucket simultaneously mid-sprint. Restore preview surfaces the policy diff.

SCIM-driven product-access change strips Confluence rights

A SCIM attribute mapping change moved a population to an Atlassian license tier that did not include Confluence. Documentation work halted. Restore preview surfaces the mapping diff.

Group rule cleanup drops customer-success agents from JSM

A directory cleanup removed a group rule feeding the CS-jsm-agents group. Service tickets piled up.

Honest scope

What Butterfly captures — and what it does not

In scope

The Okta-side configuration governing the Atlassian stack: the Atlassian Cloud SAML / OIDC app integration, attribute mappings, SCIM provisioning configuration, assigned users and groups, group rules driving Atlassian product access, sign-on policies, and Workflows automations.

Out of scope

We do not back up Jira tickets, Confluence pages, Bitbucket repositories, JSM service tickets, or any Atlassian-side state. Atlassian-side backup is owned by Atlassian's own export tooling.

Regulatory shape

Compliance and audit angle

SOC 2 CC6 (logical access) and ISO 27001 A.5.16 (identity management) apply most directly to engineering-tooling identity continuity. HIPAA 164.312 applies to JSM deployments handling regulated requests.

Butterfly's own SOC 2 Type II work is in progress; current status lives in the Trust Center.

Frequently asked

FAQ

Does Butterfly back up Atlassian product data?

No. Butterfly backs up the Okta configuration governing the Atlassian stack. Atlassian-side data backup is owned by Atlassian's own tooling.

Can we restore a single SCIM mapping?

Yes. Restore preview lets you pick the scope before committing.

Does this cover Bitbucket Cloud as well?

Yes. Any Atlassian Cloud product gated by the same Okta-side SSO app is in scope.
