Adding 'n' number of users in a Stash group.

unknown

Good afternoon .

I want to add some 100 users into a group in Stash. I am an admin and so I am able to create group and add users. Do I have to add the users individually, or can I add them together, instead of seperately in the group via some plug-in??

Regards,

Hi Jewel,

To retrieve a list of users from your instance (which is documented here: https://developer.atlassian.com/static/rest/stash/3.3.0/stash-rest.html#idp687024) and use as an input for a parser to obtain the list of users you want to assign to a certain group, please use the curl call below:

$ curl --user admin:admin http://localhost:7990/rest/api/1.0/admin/users

Output:

{"size":3,"limit":25,"isLastPage":true,"values":[{"name":"admin","emailAddress":"user@user.com","id":1,"displayName":"Thiago Bomfim","active":true,"slug":"admin","type":"NORMAL","directoryName":"Stash Internal Directory","mutableDetails":true,"mutableGroups":true,"link":{"url":"/users/admin","rel":"self"},"links":{"self":[{"href":"http://localhost:7990/users/admin"}]}},{"name":"testuser1","emailAddress":"testuser1@user.com","id":2,"displayName":"Test User 1","active":true,"slug":"testuser1","type":"NORMAL","directoryName":"Stash Internal Directory","mutableDetails":true,"mutableGroups":true,"link":{"url":"/users/testuser1","rel":"self"},"links":{"self":[{"href":"http://localhost:7990/users/testuser1"}]}},{"name":"testuser2","emailAddress":"test@user2.com","id":51,"displayName":"Test User 2","active":true,"slug":"testuser2","type":"NORMAL","directoryName":"Stash Internal Directory","mutableDetails":true,"mutableGroups":true,"link":{"url":"/users/testuser2","rel":"self"},"links":{"self":[{"href":"http://localhost:7990/users/testuser2"}]}}],"start":0}

The following curl call works for me and assign the users "testuser1" and "testuser2" to a group called "newtestgroup". This is documented here: https://developer.atlassian.com/static/rest/stash/3.3.0/stash-rest.html#idp759792

$ curl -H "Content-Type:application/json" -H "Accept:application/json" --user admin:admin -X POST -d '{"group": "newtestgroup","users": ["testuser1","testuser2"]}' http://localhost:7990/rest/api/1.0/admin/groups/add-users

I hope that is helpful.

You can do this via the REST API. (You need http://example.com/rest/api/1.0/admin/groups/add-users [POST] )

I think there this is mislinked. This should be the right rest point to use https://developer.atlassian.com/static/rest/stash/3.3.0/stash-rest.html#idp687024

It seems that the numbers after the # change for each session(?) If I navigate to the right place, copy the link, close the tab, paste the link, it takes me to a different place than previously. Anyway. Updated the answer to be more helpful.

Balazs/Deric, Thank you for the update. I am checking it out. Will let you know of the outcome.

This works perfectly, is it possible to add users using email id or displayname instead of Users ?
