Short answer

How can I audit user access and groups with my AI?

Your AI pulls user lists, group memberships, and SSO application access from JumpCloud. You get a clear view of who has access to what without manual exports. This breakdown shows how the audit works.

Audit outcomes

Where your data lands

The AI pulls specific information from JumpCloud to answer your questions.

IDENTITY

Verified user lists

The AI pulls specific user profiles to confirm identities and account status.

GROUPS

Membership mapping

You'll see exactly which users belong to which security or department groups.

ACCESS

Application visibility

The AI identifies which SSO applications are assigned to specific users or groups.

HUMAN

Manual remediation

The AI identifies discrepancies, but you must log in to JumpCloud to change permissions.

The workflow

What your AI does when the audit starts.

The AI moves through your directory to gather the data you requested.

  1. Gather user data

    The AI pulls a list of all users in your JumpCloud directory to establish a baseline.

    list_users

  2. Inspect specific profiles

    It looks up individual user details to check specific attributes or status.

    get_user

  3. Map group structures

    The AI checks which users are tied to specific security or organizational groups.

    list_user_groups

  4. Verify app access

    It cross-references user identities against the list of available SSO applications.

    list_applications
