I want to check where groups are used.

I want to check which users and groups have permissions set in a project. Is there any REST API that allows such investigation? Or is there an API to investigate which project a specific user or group is used for permission settings, etc.?

Is your question focus on using REST APIs only?  If so, take a look at this documentation link - https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-permissions/#api-group-permissions

Otherwise, you can just access https://admin.atlassian.com for your env - Systems>> Users management  - In this UI, you can access Users or Groups for more details.

To identify permission assignments in a project, then go to your specific JSM project, then use Project settings >> People to review the project permissions and role assignments.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for answering. However, I don't think the API you taught me can obtain group permissions. I want to get a list of group permissions. Which projects do you have permission to access?

The best way to obtain group permission in a project is to use the project UI.  On the REST APIs side  you may also want to take a look at -https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v2/api-group-groups/#api-group-groups

Where you can obtain the group members, and then take the member data to identify the permissions at the high level.

Hope this helps.

It seems like things aren't getting along well. Is there an API to find out which projects a specific group has permissions for? What you have introduced is not intended and is not recommended.

From my end, I am not aware of anything else via REST APIs that will get what you wanted.  You should reach out to Atlassian Support (https://support.atlassian.com) for further assistance.

Here is another posting similar to what you are asking that you can take a look (specially at  what Atlassian Team suggested regarding to REST APIs) - https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/How-can-I-see-in-which-project-a-group-is-used/qaq-p/1380138

I couldn't take it, but I understood. Thank you very much.
