How to create a Service account without an email address into Atlassian JIRA cloud?

[Smita]

Hello Atlassian team ,  I need to setup a Service account on Cloud . How do I go about it ? Please advise. I should be able to call API using the account. This account doesnt have email address typically . In cloud  we have to have an email to have account created. so how to do this?

We use GSuite for email, and instead of creating a new GSuite user for this purpose, setup a GSuite group. This way the Jira service account user could be created when the email went to the group, which has the Jira admins as members.

You need to create the account with an email address.  Allocate it one.
