Jira Script runner - add user to project role

[Deleted user]

I am working with JIRA Service Desk plugin and JIRA script runner. I am trying to implement a script that will add new users based off people that are CCed on the original email to the Service Desk and add them to the ticket.

I have a external python script that gets the emails, but I dont know how to add the new users i am creating to a project role?

Below is my current script, The commented section is where I am trying to add new users:

String[] emails = output.split(",");

List<ApplicationUser> requestParticipants = [];

for(int i = 0; i < emails.length; i++){
    
    def new_user = UserUtils.getUserByEmail(emails[i])
    if(!new_user){
    	ApplicationUser user = userUtil.getUserByName(new_user.getName())
		requestParticipants.add(user);
    }
	else{
       
		String uuid = UUID.randomUUID().toString().replaceAll("\\W+", "");
        userUtil.createUserNoNotification(emails[i], uuid, emails[i], emails[i])
		ApplicationUser user = userUtil.getUserByName(new_user.getName())
		// how can I assign them to the project role named Service Desk Customers
		requestParticipants.add(user);        
    }
}

Hi Daniel,

You can try something like this. 

import com.atlassian.jira.bc.projectroles.ProjectRoleService
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleActor
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager
import com.atlassian.jira.util.SimpleErrorCollection

def projectManager = ComponentAccessor.getProjectManager()
def projectRoleService = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(ProjectRoleService)
def projectRoleManager = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(ProjectRoleManager)
def errorCollection = new SimpleErrorCollection()

def project = projectManager.getProjectObjByKey("PROJKEY")
def projectRole = projectRoleManager.getProjectRole("Service Desk Customers")
def actors = ['actor1Key', 'actor2Key']
projectRoleService.addActorsToProjectRole(actors,
        projectRole,
        project,
        ProjectRoleActor.USER_ROLE_ACTOR_TYPE,
        errorCollection)

The code is not tested, but I think it can give you a hint.
