Null result for GET REST API Jira Cloud

Constance Hua (Private)

I am trying to search user by e-mail address. I am using:

def userResult = get("/rest/api/2/user/search?username=hello@gmail.com")
.header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
.asObject(Map)

if (userResult.status == 200) {
return userResult.body.fields
}
else {
return "result.status"
}

I get this response:

"Cannot get property 'fields' on null object"

I tried with each user, email and username and nothing changes.

 

Thank you for your help

Hi Constance,

Thank you for your question.

Further to my previous reply I believe that if you made the following changes below to your script then it should work.

• Change the line of '.asObject(Map)' to be '.asObject(List)'
• Change the line of 'return userResult.body.fields' to be 'return userResult.body'

If this response has answered your question can you please mark it as accepted so that other users can see it is correct when searching for similar answers.

Regards,

Kristian
