Unable to add specific users to Jira Team – “We’re unable to add members to the team”

[nagata shumpei]

Hi everyone,

We are experiencing an issue in Jira Cloud Teams where specific users cannot be added to a Team.

When attempting to add them, the following error message appears:

“We’re unable to add members to the team”

Current situation:

• Other users can be added without any issue

• Only specific users (multiple users) are affected

• Affected users are Active

• They can log into Jira successfully

• Product access is assigned

• Users appear in the Team member search

• Reproduced across multiple Teams

• Reproduced with multiple admins

• Atlassian Guard is enabled

• Jira Cloud Premium environment

We have already tried:

• Browser change

• Cache clear

• Different Teams

• Different admins

Has anyone experienced a similar issue or identified the root cause?

Any advice or troubleshooting points would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

@nagata shumpei Have you checked to make sure that they have the same permissions as a user that you are able to add to the team?  Have you plugged both users in the permission helper?
