Basically you can use the User Profile Plugin Profiles for Confluence with Crowd, but there is a catch: The synchronization feature of the User Profile Plugin Profles for Confluence does only support directly connected LDAP-based directories, like Active Directory.

The ability to synchronize the User Profile plugin Profles for Confluence with Crowd is not currently supported but there is a workaround available.

...

  1. The order of the directories in the configuration is important. The Crowd server must be the first directory and then the linked user directory as second. The Confluence user synchronization uses the Crowd server. The User Profile plugin Profles for Confluence synchronization skips the unsupported Crowd server and uses the second user directory.
  2. The usernames must be exactly the same (upper/lower case) in Confluence (from Crowd) and in the linked user directory
  3. Please test it first on a separate test environment.
