How to get an agent list of a Service Desk via REST?

[Marcos Strapazon]

Hello people!!

With this endpoint we get a list of Service Desks:

https://your-domain.atlassian.net/rest/servicedeskapi/servicedesk

I wonder if there is a way to get the agents of each Service Desk.

Has anyone achived such requirement?

I went throught the documentation in the below link but I couldn't find a solution

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Marcos Strapazon 

First you have to make sure to use the right rest api doc, if you are on server you have to use the server api not the cloud one.

You can go to the admin section > Application > Application Access then get the name of the group that grant agent permission. Then use the api to get the list of user of this group.

Hello @Florian Bonniec ! Thank you for your rapid answer!

in fact I don't need to the the aplication access but the users in a Service Desk (a project in the Service Managment Application).

I found a way to do so, first getting the Project's roles:

/rest/api/2/project/{projectIdOrKey}/role

and then, getting the information of each role:

/rest/api/2/project/{projectIdOrKey}/role/{id}

in this way I could retrieve the agents of a specific project because the response includes an array of users for that role.

Right it's the way to go if you want to have the information per project. Note that actually Service Desk role do not grant any permission.

In fact all agents from a project are all users having the Service Desk Agent permission (permission scheme of the project) and have the application access to JIRA Service Desk (Management).

So if in all your permissions scheme, Service Desk Agent permission is granted to Service Desk Team only, your solution will work.
