Hello there,

is there a way to change the "DisplayName" of an App-User.

We recently installed an app to clone and synchronise a issue. All issue changes will now be made by the App-User. Since the App Vendor doesn't have an ETA or planned feature to change the name of the initiator, we wanted to change the App-User "DisplayName" via the API. I can't seem to find an REST-Endpoint for changing User-Data via the normal Jira-Cloud Rest-API: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/intro/

 

So I tried via the Atlassian-Access API-Endpoint: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/admin/user-management/rest/intro/#about

Via the Organization API: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/admin/organization/rest/intro/#about

I can't seem to find the App-User. So I can't retrieve the AtlassianId to even try to use the User-Management API to change the DisplayName. Am I missing something? Or is the Organization/Admin/Access-API not able to GET/PUT App-Users?

If so, how do I go about changing the App-User Name?

 

Thanks in advance,

Regards

Adrian
