How to get project roles of a user in any project in jira cloud?

[Alok Singh]

Hi I am trying to check whether the logged-in user is part of a specific role in JIRA project. I could have easily done that in server plugins with 

Collection<ProjectRole> projectRoles = 

projectRoleManager.getProjectRoles(applicationUser, project);

But I cannot find any such rest api to check user role in a project. Please help asap.

The following JIRA REST API's should let you do what you need to do.

• /role
• /project/{projectIdOrKey}/role

Also see these related issues.

Also, if the /rest/api/2/project/<projectIdOrKey>/role/<id> rest api would give you what you need then why not just request ADMIN access for your add-on?

@Alok Singh, if you are attempting to get attention on your Atlassian Connect questions then you are better off adding the 'atlassian-connect' label to your issues. That will result in a faster response. I have been on holidays for the past few weeks.

@Robert Massaioli Please have a look into this.

Currently I am using 

/rest/api/2/project and

/rest/api/2/project/{projectKey} to check user has the specific role.

After running these API's I am trying to use

GET /rest/api/2/project/{projectIdOrKey}/role/{id}

which gives 401(unauthorized) for non admin users.
