Add user to group using API

[Asra Nousheen]

Hi, I am trying to add an user to group using bitbucket api.

But failing because of naming exceptions.

Bitbucket Version: 5.5.4.

POST https://bitbucketURL/rest/api/1.0/admin/groups/add-user

{
 "context": "NewGroup",
 "itemName": "test1"
}

Error:

{"errors":[{"context":null,"message":"No user named 'test1' was found","exceptionName":"com.atlassian.bitbucket.user.NoSuchUserException"}]}

Can someone please tell me what is wrong in this

Hello, I use the following syntax:

curl -k -u <ADMIN>:<PASSWORD> -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/vnd.atl.plugins.plugin+json" -d '{"name": "userID","displayName": "USER_NAME","email": "userID@company.com"}' https://<bitbucketURL>/rest/api/1.0/admin/group/add-user

 Having said that, this works only for internal directories

I hope this help
