Dear All,

I was looking for ways to automate JIRA user account creation.

To elaborate my request, I am looking at below mentioned steps

i) A user sending a templatized email to Helpdesk.

ii) Creation of JIRA User account automatically.

Can this be done using JIRA REST API? Please suggest. 

Many Thanks to all of you.

Hello,

You can not catch a email with Rest Api.

You would need a plugin for it.

For example, you could use the Power Scripts add-on:

You could create a mail handler, parse your mail and create a user. You can read more info about mail handlers here:

You can find how to create a user here:
