How can I give registered users the ability to add themselves to a group?

[Mathew Benson]

I setup anonymous and basic authenticated users to have read access. Authenticated users have permission to submit issue tickets. I need a mechanism to let users self agree to a Contributor License Agreement, to give them read/write access. I can’t find any services or plugins to do this, so Im thinking of just creating a Confluence page with the agreement and an “I Agree” button, that would add them to a group with read/write privelages. What is the best way to do that? Is it possible to add a button that runs a query or server side script?

Hmm.. If you would use JIRA, create a new project that is open for all users and set up workflow in that way that would process this agreement that should be possible. After creating a ticket you can have a transition be called as you wish and exectue in post function additional code. There are some plugins like ScriptRunner that could help you do that or you can use Webhooks build in JIRA. By setting up security level users would see only issues created by them.

I like this.  I will look into how to write and execute functions on transition.  Thanks.

I would recommend a nasty javascript dialog  for this use case:) window.confirm("agreement");
