getting display name from users in group

Question

Hi,

i have simple script sending users in group to an array and then displaying using for() loop.

String list = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager().getUserNamesInGroup("somegroup").toString();
String list2 = list.substring(1, list.length() - 1);
String[] array = list2.split(",");

problem is that script displays username not full display name. i was trying with getDisplayName() function but with no result

could you help me?

Hi @Kamil Mikołajczyk

Can you try this method

getUsersInGroup()

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/7.6.1/com/atlassian/jira/security/groups/GroupManager.html

instead of

getUserNamesInGroup()

Then you will have a collection of ApplicationUser and make a loop and use this

methodgetDisplayName()

Hi @Kamil Mikołajczyk the following script will do what you need:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def applicationUsersList = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager().getUsersInGroup("jira-administrators")
def applicationUsersDisplayNames = applicationUsersList.collect{ it.getDisplayName() }
