An api that fetches the jira's associated under an employee

[Ramya]

I am trying to use this api and in which format should I give the name of the assignee..

https://*******/rest/api/2/user/search?assignee=***

Suppose the assignee is R,Madhavan then how should we specify in assignee.

Thanks in Advance..
