How do I grant access to a revoked portal-only customer through the rest API?

[Jasper Dorado]

While looking for the solution to this, I came across this thread and someone in the comments mentions that the API allows for granting access but not revoking.

I can't find any evidence of this anywhere, could anyone please guide me to the right resource or tell me that it in fact is not possible?

Hi @Jasper Dorado 

This can't be done. You can only create new users.

See API; https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/service-desk/rest/api-group-customer/#api-rest-servicedeskapi-customer-post 

There is no option for deactivation or re-actiovation of inactive users
