I need Jira REST API to get assign particular project roles to particular users

Question

Hi,

I need Jira rest APIs using which I can assign particular project roles to people(users). In Jira rest api documentation I could find some python method but those are assigning project roles to a set of user group. But I need to assign project roles to particular users. Please help me providing the API for that.

Hi @DIPAYAN GANGULY   Try to following api for adding user in a project role :-

curl --request POST \
--url 'https://your-jira-server/rest/api/2/project/{projectIdOrKey}/role/{roleId}' \
--user 'username:password' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"user": ["username"]
}'

For JIRA cloud Python and cURL available here :- https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-project-role-actors/#api-rest-api-3-project-projectidorkey-role-id-put

Hi, @DIPAYAN GANGULY

If I understood you right - you have to use this merhods:

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-project-role-actors/#api-rest-api-3-project-projectidorkey-role-id-post

In body use parameter user, not groupId, like in example.
