How to export a users list from JIRA online application.

[Viktoria Alexi]

I would like to export a list of users in JIRA for auditing purposes. Is there a report or another means for doing so? Thank you.

Hi and welcome on Community!

There are not a lot of options but I'll help you find one! Can you please let us know if you're on Jira Cloud or Server? You can easily figure this out with the URL used to access Jira, if it ends with .atlassian.net then you're hosted by Atlassian in Cloud!

With this information I'll be able to suggest better solutions!

Cheers

Thank you for your help.
Judging from my URL I am on Jira Server.

Understood, thanks for confirming.

If you want to export all users on Server, you might want to use the REST API (if you're familiar with this). There is a URL you can call which will return users member of a group:

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.6.1/#api/2/group-getUsersFromGroup

You can then query the jira-users group which will return every user having access to Jira. If you need to include all users (even unlicensed), you can bulk add all your users to a group and use the exact same API.

Hope this helps!

Cheers
