Is there a way to automate Team members?

Zachary Howard

We want to start using the Teams feature in Jira, Confluence, etc. but one thing that seems inconvenient is how adding someone to a Team is a manual process. Is there any way to associate Teams with a specific user group?

I've tried looking into it an have found very little on the topic.

Actually the second part of that page seems to be referencing how to modify the Team members, no?
https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/teams/rest/v1/api-group-teams-members-public-api/#api-group-teams-members-public-api

Now I am wondering if there is a way to use the REST API (maybe with ScriptRunner) to automate these? 

Something like:

  1. Once a week pull the Group members list
  2. Pull the corresponding Team members list
  3. Compare the two values
  4. IF TeamMembers != GroupMembers modify the TeamMembers list

 

Thoughts on this?

You are right. I'm doing too much multi-tasking again.

I'm not adept at ScriptRunner scripting so I can't advise on that.

I know that with Automation Rules you can run rules on Schedules and use the Send Web Request action to call REST API endpoints. There's an article about the Send Web Request action here:
