Add user to Confluence group using REST API

[Shroomy]

Hi,

I am trying to use the Confluence API to add a user to a group. I have tried this option.

api/user/{username}/group/{groupName}

 And I have used it in the following Python script:

import json
import os
import requests

confluence_url = os.environ['EXAMPLE_CONFLUENCE_URL']
confluence_pat = os.environ['EXAMPLE_CONFLUENCE_PAT']

headers = {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + confluence_pat
}

json_data = {
'username': 'some.user@example.com',
'groupName': 'some-confluence-group',
}

api_endpoint = '/rest/api/user/'

url = confluence_url + api_endpoint

response = requests.put(url, headers=headers, json=json_data)

print(response.url)
print(response.status_code)

# Result:
# https://confluence.example.com/rest/api/user/
# 404

Not sure why I am getting a 404. I also don't understand what is meant by the {@link User} in the documentation.

HI - Are you able to invoke any other methods successfully? 404 usually indicate that resource end point is not available.
