Is there a way to change the owner of projects in a bulk edit?

Question

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

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

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?
