Is it possible to change Confluence group names by using Confluence rest API endpoints

[Gözde Akkaya]

Hello everyone,

I am curious about how can we change Confluence group names? Is it possible by using Confluence rest API endpoints. If possible, how?

Thank you !!

Hey @Gözde Akkaya 

There's no API available to let you change a group name. You'll have to make group name changes manually via admin.atlassian.com. There's more information on this here https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Atlassian-Access-articles/Org-admins-can-now-rename-groups-in-cloud/ba-p/2276321

Hi @Gözde Akkaya ,

You may refer to the below link for Confluence API.

That documents how to retrieve information about existing groups or create new ones.  I'm not seeing an endpoint that answer's OP's question about changing group names.
