I need to add multiple users as request participants to a large number of issues in Jira Service Management. I am looking for a method to perform this action in bulk rather than adding participants one by one. Thank you!
Hello @kurnia_asyari
Welcome to the Atlassian community.
The Bulk Change feature doesn't support editing the Request Participants field.
As a work around you can create an Automation Rule. Are you familiar with that feature?

welcome to the community!
If you're open to solutions from the Atlassian Marketplace, you may want to have a look at the app that my team and I are working on, JXL for Jira.
JXL is a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view for your issues that allows viewing, inline-editing, sorting, and filtering by all your issue fields, much like you’d do in e.g. Excel or Google Sheets. It also allows inline bulk editing, via copy/paste. This works for all editable issue fields, including the request participants.
This is how it looks in action:
Note that the copy/paste operation currently always replaces the present set of request participants, rather than adding to it. Depending on your exact use case, a replace operation might do the trick; if not, I'm happy to elaborate on available workarounds. (We also plan to add support for a dedicated "add" operation in the future.)
I should also add that JXL can do much more than the above: From support for configurable issue hierarchies, to issue grouping by any issue field(s), sum-ups, or conditional formatting.
Any questions just let me know,
Best,
Hannes
