How to Bulk Change Permission Schemes? Edited

[Zachary Singh]

I am looking at migrating around 75 Projects from an existing Permission scheme into a new Permission scheme. Is there any way to change them in a bulk operation rather than going into each existing project & changing the permission scheme it is associated with?

@Zachary SinghWe have suggestion such as  this  register to  Atlassian so  for now you  can't do  it   base on the API. https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-37941

 but you  can try to  use this plugin i believe is possible

I don't  have the exact  query  using this  plugin yet.

Best!

@Zachary Singh Did you resolve the issue? If yes, please help me out how to do it, I was in the same boat. 

[Zachary Singh]

@niranjan I wasn't able to do so with the plugin provide, so I ended up manually doing so.

@Zachary Singh @niranjan  anyone please help here if it can be done using REST call ?

@Zachary Singh, @niranjan, @Narendra Kumar I am trying to accomplish the same for 100+ projects. Did anyone find an easy solution yet? I read about REST or had the idea of Scriptrunner, but I am not sure that this can be achieved easily.

Hi @Bernhard Kirschner  @niranjan  @Zachary Singh I've written script that will help you to change the permission scheme for multiple projects in bulk. 

Please find this as - 

java.util.ArrayList allProjectKeys = ['A','B','C','D']
for( projKey in allProjectKeys){
def result2 = put('/rest/api/2/project/'+ projKey +'/permissionscheme')
.header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
.body([
id: 111111        // ID for new permission scheme
])
.asString()

}

Run the above script in script-runner . Thanks!

Hi @Narendra Kumar 

Can you provide me the script that should be working in Scriptrunner?

The above one is not complete I believe?

Thanks!

[Narendra Kumar]

Hi @Wim Abts  the above script should run. You've to define the ArrayList for your project and just apply the loop and Put call.

First try to run for 4-5 projects to change the permission scheme. Let us know what error you're getting. Thanks!

Hi @Narendra Kumar 

This is the  error I get when running the script in the Scriptrunner console:
