Hi Prasad,

You can use below script to fetch jira active users.

import requests

import csv

# Jira Data Center credentials and base URL

JIRA_BASE_URL = "https://jira-url" # Replace with your Jira Data Center URL

USERNAME = "USER.Name" # Replace with your Jira username

API_TOKEN = "API TOKEN" # Replace with your Personal Access Token (PAT)

# Endpoint to fetch active users

USERS_ENDPOINT = f"{JIRA_BASE_URL}/rest/api/2/user/search"

# Headers with API token for authentication

headers = {

"Accept": "application/json",

"Authorization": f"Bearer {API_TOKEN}" # Use the API token for authentication

}

def fetch_all_active_users():

start_at = 0

max_results = 1000 # Max allowed by Jira API

all_users = []

total_users = None # To store the total count (if available)

while True:

params = {

"username": ".", # Fetch all users (wildcard search)

"startAt": start_at,

"maxResults": max_results,

"includeActive": True,

"includeInactive": False,

}

try:

response = requests.get(USERS_ENDPOINT, headers=headers, params=params)

response.raise_for_status()

data = response.json()

users = data # Jira returns an array of users directly

if not users:

break # No more users

all_users.extend(users)

start_at += len(users)

except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:

print(f"Error fetching users: {e}")

return None

return all_users

# Save the results to a CSV file

def save_users_to_csv(users, filename='active_jira_users.csv'):

if users is None: # Check if fetch_all_active_users returned an error

return

with open(filename, mode='w', newline='', encoding='utf-8') as file:

writer = csv.writer(file)

# Write the header row

writer.writerow(['Name', 'Email', 'Username'])

# Write user details to the CSV file

for user in users:

name = user.get('displayName', 'N/A')

email = user.get('emailAddress', 'N/A')

username = user.get('name', 'N/A')

writer.writerow([name, email, username])

print(f"Active Jira users have been saved to '{filename}'.")

# Main script

if __name__ == "__main__": #Good practice to enclose main code

all_users = fetch_all_active_users()

save_users_to_csv(all_users)

What is the difference between a licensed user and an active user? 

[Suneel Kumar]

licensed users are plan of the users like 1000 and currently active users are 600 and 400 license are still remains available to use.
