What app is this?

[David Siegel]

I found this app in my Azure Enterprise list. 

Can someone tell me what it is?  This was installed in 2020.

Hello, @David Siegel 

I am pretty sure this is the app that auto-installs (and auto-resurrects! if you delete it) from Microsoft's side to enable "Continue with Microsoft" functionality i.e. the "convenience shortcut login". From experience you can't delete it, or configure it in any meaningful way. You can make it available only to select users in your domain e.g. to the same users you are provisioning with SCIM and allowing "normal" SAML login – so anyone else who is trying to barge into your Cloud via Entra will be stopped.

So you can make it not visible to users – this way they won't be using it from Microsoft "applications" page. And you can make it "assignment required" and assign a group that corresponds to "users allowed to use Atlassian Cloud in your org"

I'm not convinced 46cdaa3f-9339-4b60-bf04-4dd98cd903d7 is related to SCIM.  All activity around SCIM/SAML seems to work exclusively with Atlassian Cloud (which I suspect is a legacy naming convention and should be called Guard).  I've disabled/blocked 46cdaa3f-9339-4b60-bf04-4dd98cd903d7 because I can't get a firm answer on this myself.

HI @David Siegel!

That looks like the connector that is required for Atlassian Guard to perform user and group provisioning synchronization between Azure AD and Atlassian Cloud.
