Hi @vicky kung

Confluence supports adding multiple directories for authentication

For your use case, since you have Crowd, you could integrate Crowd with Azure AD and manage users instead of Confluence

Here's a guide

Hi @Pramodh M 

Thanks for your supports.

I am not expressing clearly enough，I cloudn't integrate Crowd with Azure AD because i plan to replacing Crowd  with Azure AD.  For example, user A is exists in Crowd  and Confluence uses Crowd as first User Directory，user A can login normal. Now user B who has same email in Azure AD , I want to use Azure AD sync user B to Confluence  and login to it. This scenario is user A can login with Crowd and user B login with Azure AD at the same time.  is it possible to achieve it  ?

As long as Usernames don't conflict, you can have other parameters the same.

But make sure to keep the username unique across all the directory, otherwise it the priority will be first matching user directory

Both of user  A and user B have the same email Jane.Chan@test.com.
