JIRA REST-GET password by email

Question

Hello everyone

Is there any query that I can make with curl to get a user's password ?

Here is my curl query :

curl -u adminUser:adminPwd -X GET https://ci.mundiwebservices.com/jira/rest/api/2/user/search?username=hasnae.dada%40gmail.net

Thanks,

Ok, then you mean "no", as it does not share authentication with Jira.

You can do this without SSO, but your other system is going to have to do some work.  First, working from the email address, ask your directories what the user's Jira account is called, then, second, establish an Oauth connection with Jira so that the current user can call Jira to get the data you want to see.

Yes we have a website that shares the authentication with jira, the user logs to the website, his username/password may not be the same as in JIRA only the email is the same for both, once he clicks on my issues in the website he gets his jira issues. it works for the admin because we know his password, we thought that JIRA stors the users and thier password(maybe encrypted).I don't think the SSO is the solution we don't have multiple application access.

You have to ask the user.  As I said already, Jira does not store the passwords.

Where are you trying to "directly access the issues"?  Is it a system which shares authentication with Jira?  Could you enable SSO?
