Description
User Profiles for JIRA enhances the functionality of JIRA’s user profiles. By using this add-on, user profiles can be centrally extended with additional elements. On top of that, the add-on supports the synchronization of any attribute from LDAP-based external user directories (e.g. Active Directory or OpenLDAP) with the user profile by extending the LDAP integration functionality of JIRA. This means that the users no longer need to update their personal data manually.
The benefit to you: The data of synchronized user profiles is always kept up-to-date and can be used to display on the hover profile.

Editing the User Profile
The edit mode allows that both, administrators and users, are able to adjust the data for the additional profile elements. Elements of profiles for external (LDAP) users that are synchronized are not possible to edit.

Please note, that the fields are only visible at the profile, if they contain any information. Otherwise they are hidden!

Synchronize User Profile Pictures
The User Profiles for JIRA allows for your profile pictures to be synchronized from a central storage.
If this feature is activated by your administrator, users will be able to upload their own pictures, but after a new synchronization the picture from the picture storage is displayed again.
If there is no photo set for the user within the picture storage, the manually uploaded photo will not be overwritten.
