JumpCloud Groups

How to manage on-demand, temporary membership to JumpCloud groups

Overview

If your organization manages access to apps and accounts using IdP groups, for example by adding users to shift groups, you can now create Access Flow to control who can request temporary group membership.

Upon approved request, Apono will add users to groups and remove them after the access time is up.
