Get group members in JIRA

Rumceisz May 1, 2012

Hi All,

I'd like to ask for you help. We need to add 100+ members from more groups to another group. But in the Edit members section we cannot export the members list (I mean simply a Copy (CTRL+C). Do you know a Groovy runner script I can list all the members with, what I can copy then?

Thanks in advance!

Rumi

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager

def componentManager = ComponentManager.instance
componentManager.getUserUtil().getGroup("jira-users").getUsers()

Hi Jamie,

from the above code, how to give the customized group names instead hard coded "jira-users"

Does this work if the group has more than 50 users?

The REST API only allows 50 users at a time. Wondering if that is true with getUsers method as well.

It works for me:

import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()
def groupManager = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()
def group = userManager.getGroup("jira-users")
Collection<User> usersInGroup = groupManager.getUsersInGroup(group)
for (User user : usersInGroup){
	//
}

Why? I just had to add the typecast: Collection<User> userList = (Collection<User>) groupManager.getUsersInGroup(group)

If I understand you. You want to get all the users from the groups in the first CF, then update a user CF with them? Yes you can do that, just get the user objects from groups, then set the multi user CF to that value.
