Jira API create user not define password

[Carla Reis]

Hi,

We use the following link to create users "customers" on jira

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/?_ga=2.99585692.388684708.1550486328-803677865.1547035448#api-api-3-user-post

We are creating users by API into jira and the customers are actually getting created on the Service desk portal. The users only has access on site.

After every creation the added user receives an email 'join them now'. We would like to change this email for the user can 'set password'.

Is there possibly an automated way for this where we can set the initial password manually.

e.g.

{

  "emailAddress": "xpto.abc@mail.pt",

  "displayName": "Xpto Abc",

  "notification": "true"

}​

Thanks.

Hi Carla Reis

All Cloud instances use the Atlassian IDs as logins now,

Only the holder of the email address would be able to set their own password.

If you want to control the user logins, then you can set up SAML Single On  for your instance. which enables you to submit control from Atlassian ID to your SAML provider.

Hope this Helps!

Warm Regards,

Raja

Hi @Raja Shekher Kammara,

Right, but after creating the user account by API (/rest/api/3/user), the user does not receive any information to set password for the first time. It only receives the email with the "Join Them Now" button and when accessing the page is requested the password, it does not have.

Why does the JIRA not propose to create the password? Something like the email with "Set Password" button.

We want to create users by API but users should be able to create their password without using "Reset password".

Thanks
