Hello! My subject line pretty much says it all. How do I upload a list of users from a CSV File into a Group in my Confluence Cloud using Postman?

You might have better luck using Python and just looping through the text file.

This is a very basic piece of Confluence Cloud permissions management code that I wrote in Python. I know it works to access Confluence Cloud, you'd just need to tweak the functionality a bit.

import requests
import json

headers = {
'Authorization': 'Basic <Base 64-encoded username and API Token>',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Accept': 'application/json',
}

data = data=json.dumps({
"subject": {
"type": "user",
"identifier": "<user ID>"
},
"operation": {
"key": "read",
"target": "space"
},
"_links": {}
})

response = requests.post('https://<confluence URL>.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/space/<space key>/permission', headers=headers, data=data)


print(response.content)
