Jira rest api not listing email address of the user

[Thyagaraj Gopalakrishna]

Is there a way I can get assignee email address from the issue details or user details?

rest/api/2/issue/issue-6659

rest/api/2/user/search?username=user1

I have been reading about the public visibility of the contact email address. 

• Does everyone should set their email visibility to Anyone to get mail address from issue/user details?.
• If yes, is there a way where admin can update all the users mail visibility to Anyone by api or some other way?

Hi @Thyagaraj Gopalakrishna ,
I think with the query

rest/api/latest/search?jql=key%3DXXX-12345

you can expend the assignee field and get the info like :

You can find the display name and the mail address.

I don't know about the privacy visibility and I don't know the primeter of this privacy and it is a good question...

Hope it helps !

Thanks for replying. Actually this is not working for me, the user mail id is not listing for any user. Looks like something to do with the privacy visibility
