How do I add a user by assinging a particular role via API?

[Anantya Mary J]

I've found the api to add a user => POST https://your-domain.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/user

But the details aren't proper in the official documentation as it is mentioned as 'Experimental'.

Can you please help me with the proper API?
