Behaviours - scriptrunner get user and project role

Mauricio Rodriguez

Hi everyone,

I need to create a behavior in ScriptRunner that retrieves the current user and then checks their role in the Jira project where they are trying to create an issue. I appreciate your help in determining whether this can be achieved in Jira Cloud.

Hi Mauricio,

I can confirm with Behaviours in Jira Cloud you need to retrieve the roles from the context to check them.

We have a couple of example scripts in the docs linked below that show how to do this that you can use as a guide to help create the script that you require.

Examples: 

 

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Kristian

Hi,

I think you will need to retrieve the project role used by the current project then iterate over each role and search for the current user in each role.

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-project-roles#api-group-project-roles

in behaviour you can use the getContext method to access the current project and more infos

Hi @Mauricio Rodriguez ,

 

It is unclear what you mean by "checks their role".

If you are open to using apps, you can use Roles Dashboard for Jira , an app released by our company.

In the two perspectives, you can have a clear picture of how your user is part of roles, either by being assigned to a role directly, or by being part of a group that is assigned to the role.

You can export your result to csv for further analysis.

Petru
