Not able to retrieve user account id using compound names

[mauricio]

Hi there,

I'm not being able to retrieve account IDs for compound usernames using the REST v3 API. This actually works for single usernames but compounds

for instance:

Assuming there a username named "foo.bar"

If I hit this endpoint

https://caylent.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/user/bulk/migration?username=foo.bar

I'm getting an unknown response

[{username: "foo.bar",accountId: "unknown"}]

This is not happening for single usernames 

Any hints on what shall I do?

Thanks in advance

Hi @mauricio  -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

As that method is experimental for v3 and that parameter has been deprecated, you may want to try another approach:

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-users/#api-rest-api-3-user-bulk-get

username

Array<string>

This parameter is no longer available and will be removed from the documentation soon. See the deprecation notice for details.

Best regards,

Bill
