This topic describes how to configure Release to use an Atlassian Crowd to authenticate users and retrieve role (group) membership. In Release, Atlassian Crowd users and groups become principals that you can assign to roles. Global permissions are assigned at the role level.

With the maximum size of the HTTP request header set to 8KB (8192 bytes) it becomes difficult to pass the authentication tokens and scopes in headers.

Setting an appropriate value for this parameter depends on the specifics of your application and environment.
