Class UserSearchService

Create a new instance of the service.

Returns a list of users that can be assigned to an issue. Use this operation to find the list of users who can be assigned to:

• a new issue, by providing the projectKeyOrId.
• an updated issue, by providing the issueKey or issueId.
• to an issue during a transition (workflow action), by providing the issueKey or issueId and the transition id in actionDescriptorId. You can obtain the IDs of an issue's valid transitions using the transitions option in the expand parameter of Get issue.

In all these cases, you can pass an account ID to determine if a user can be assigned to an issue. The user is returned in the response if they can be assigned to the issue or issue transition.

This operation takes the users in the range defined by startAt and maxResults, up to the thousandth user, and then returns only the users from that range that can be assigned the issue. This means the operation usually returns fewer users than specified in maxResults. To get all the users who can be assigned the issue, use Get all users and filter the records in your code.

Privacy controls are applied to the response based on the users' preferences. This could mean, for example, that the user's email address is hidden. See the Profile visibility overview for more details.

Permissions required: Browse users and groups global permission or Assign issues project permission

Returns a list of users who can be assigned issues in one or more projects. The list may be restricted to users whose attributes match a string.

This operation takes the users in the range defined by startAt and maxResults, up to the thousandth user, and then returns only the users from that range that can be assigned issues in the projects. This means the operation usually returns fewer users than specified in maxResults. To get all the users who can be assigned issues in the projects, use Get all users and filter the records in your code.

Privacy controls are applied to the response based on the users' preferences. This could mean, for example, that the user's email address is hidden. See the Profile visibility overview for more details.

The query statements are:

• is assignee of PROJ Returns the users that are assignees of at least one issue in project PROJ.
• is assignee of (PROJ-1, PROJ-2) Returns users that are assignees on the issues PROJ-1 or PROJ-2.
• is reporter of (PROJ-1, PROJ-2) Returns users that are reporters on the issues PROJ-1 or PROJ-2.
• is watcher of (PROJ-1, PROJ-2) Returns users that are watchers on the issues PROJ-1 or PROJ-2.

• is transitioner of (PROJ-1, PROJ-2) Returns users that have performed a transition on issues PROJ-1 or PROJ-2.
• [propertyKey].entity.property.path is "property value" Returns users with the entity property value. For example, if user property location is set to value {"office": {"country": "AU", "city": "Sydney"}}, then it's possible to use [location].office.city is "Sydney" to match the user.

The list of issues can be extended as needed, as in (PROJ-1, PROJ-2, ... PROJ-n). Statements can be combined using the AND and OR operators to form more complex queries. For example:

is assignee of PROJ AND [propertyKey].entity.property.path is "property value"

Returns a list of active users that match the search string and property.

This operation first applies a filter to match the search string and property, and then takes the filtered users in the range defined by startAt and maxResults, up to the thousandth user. To get all the users who match the search string and property, use Get all users and filter the records in your code.

This operation can be accessed anonymously.

Privacy controls are applied to the response based on the users' preferences. This could mean, for example, that the user's email address is hidden. See the Profile visibility overview for more details.
