Is it possible to log work for other users using JIRA server REST API

Naveen Vb January 18, 2022

I was developing a tool for my organization and I am having a requirement to create worklogs, I am using JIRA Server REST API to create worklogs, but it is only allowing me to log in my name (REST API credentials are mine). Is it possible to create worklogs for different users using API. or do I need any plugins for that. 

 

Found couple of related questions in community, didn't find any update on those

Hi Naveen,

My experience has been that the using the APIs will only log information from the credentials you are using.  If your tool allows other to log in with their credentials, it will reflect their work.  If you are utilizing your own credentials exclusively I don't believe it is possible to log for another user.  It appears as though this may be a feature under consideration https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-30197.
