Update Jira-user's information

Andrey Kaganski

Hi!

I have a problem with updating usrers in Jira 4.1.1. It's necessary to change FullName and Email attributes by connecting from sided system using PowerShell or SQL-scripts. In first case I try to use API, but methods .SetEmail() and .SetFullname() of RemouteUser class, but it failed. Then I try to change attributes directly in sql table but changes appeared in UI only after restart of service becourse of cache.

So, there is two questions:

1) How can I call metods of API by using Windows Powershall?

2) How can I remove cache on request? Or remove it according to schedule?

Thanks in advance.

First, forget SQL, you will break Jira. (It will work if you have Jira offline, but isn't safe while it's running)

So, going back to the correct way to do this, you need to start by telling us what type of user directories you are using? Internal, LDAP, Crowd, something else?
