Hi, 

One of our admins has left and I would like to transfer all the projects where she was the owner, over to another user.  Is there a way to this in a bulk edit?  Also, how do I identify all the projects where she was the owner, in order to change the owner please?

TIA

Serena

Hello, Good day. At the moment bulk edit is not available for your use case and we have FR for same. https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-44299

Thanks, 

Is there a way to identify all the ones I need to change?  I've gone to projects and sorted by Project Lead but that seems very manual.  Is there a filter or report I can use to make sure I have them all?

You can use the REST API call to get all projects. https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-projects/#api-rest-api-3-project-get

Using the 'lead' will get all projects with lead name. 

 

/rest/api/3/project/?expand=lead
