How to add user to project role using jira rest api and json format to be used

Madhuri

HI ,

 

Im trying to add user to a specific project role in a project by using JIRA rest api and invoking it throw a power shell ,but when i'm passing json data as below , its giving me "Remote server returned error:400 bad request" error.

 

 Invoke Rest-Method -Uri  "https://jira url/jira/rest/api/2/project/project id/role/ role id" -Method post -Headers $Headers -Body $data1 -ContentType  "application/json"

 

Json data

$data= @"

{

"user" : ["userid/name"]

}

$data1= $data | ConvertTo-Json

 

and please let me know whether i have to use PUT/POST functionality to add user to project role and its helpful if any code need to be added to Json .

Hey Madhuri,

This should work for you

curl -D- -u <username>:<password> -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST -d '{"user":["username"]}' -k https://jira-stg.example.com/rest/api/2/project/ABC/role/10002

Using Node.js

//Use .defaults({strictSSL: false}) to by pass SSL certificate or https connection
var request = require('request').defaults({strictSSL: false})

var headers = {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
};

var dataString = '{"user":["cinguva","apawl"]}';

var options = {
    url: 'https://jira-stg.gogoair.com/rest/api/2/project/PSOBAT/role/10002',
    method: 'POST',
    headers: headers,
    body: dataString,
    auth: {
        'user': 'admin',
        'pass': 'password'
    }

};

function callback(error, response, body) {
        console.log(error);

}

request(options, callback);

Hope this helps
