How to remove Groups from Project Role(Ex- Users Role) in particular project using API call

[mihan ayeshana]

I want to remove groups in Users role in a given project using api call . How can i do that? I can remove all the groups and users using

jiraSoapService.removeAllRoleActorsByProject(authToken,remoteProject);

But i want to remove only groups of Role - Users how can i do that?

Thanks

The actorType in JAVA is com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.actor.GroupRoleActorFactory.TYPE which currently results in the String "atlassian-group-role-actor" or com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.actor.UserRoleActorFactory.TYPE which results in the String "atlassian-user-role-actor". I hope this helps.

Hi, it sounds like you need to remove actors from a project role?

removeActorsFromProjectRole(java.lang.String token, java.lang.String[] actors, RemoteProjectRole projectRole, RemoteProject project, java.lang.String actorType)

[mihan ayeshana]

I try this. before i post this qustion. But thing i want to do is remove the group all the people are in. Not one by one

[Harry Chan]

Hi, can you clarify what you mean and require? That function can remove an actor (group) from a particular project role.

Any ansers?

This the group i want to remove( Red circled one) . How to remove only that group

[Harry Chan]

Hi, this is an actor called support in the project role User. The actor type is a group.

[mihan ayeshana]

This the group i want to remove( Red circled one) . How to remove only that group

[mihan ayeshana]

This the group i want to remove( Red circled one) . How to remove only that group

[mihan ayeshana]

[mihan ayeshana]

Ok i know it. But how can i write api call to remove this group? Becuse is a group of users.

[mihan ayeshana]

Any anser? for this

[Harry Chan]

Please use the function I provided in the original answer. If you face any errors or issues let us know what they are.

[mihan ayeshana]

removeActorsFromProjectRole(java.lang.String token, java.lang.String[] actors, RemoteProjectRole projectRole, RemoteProject project, java.lang.String actorType)

But this required java.lang.String[] actors - but i only the group name not the users in the group

[Harry Chan]

Hi, an actor can be a group? Do you still have issues?

[mihan ayeshana]

Yep still i have the problem

RemoteProjectRole remoteProjectRole = jiraSoapService.getProjectRole(authToken,id);

String[] user = new String[1];

user[0]= "support";

jiraSoapService.removeActorsFromProjectRole(authToken, user,remoteProjectRole,remoteProject,"group") ;

This is end up with an error. why is that

[Harry Chan]

Can you please attach a log and/or describe what the error is? You should be able to get some axis logs from the soap error.

actorType - is a type that defines the type of role actor to instantiate (ex./ UserRoleActor.TYPE, GroupRoleActor.TYPE)

[mihan ayeshana]

Still have same error

String[] user = new String[1];

user[0]= "********";

jiraSoapService.removeActorsFromProjectRole(authToken,user,remoteProjectRole,remoteProject,"GroupRoleActor.Users");

Also i tried by puting these types as actor Type also : "GroupRoleActor.TYPE","UserRoleActor.TYPE","UserRoleActor.groups","GroupRoleActor.group"

but all end up with an error

[mihan ayeshana]

Any updates on this?
