This article explains how to remove a user as a Project Admin for multiple projects using the app, Run CLI Actions in Jira, on a datacenter data center instance.

Instructions

For this scenario, use the runFromCsv and removeProjectRoleActors actions where: 

  • removeProjectRoleActorsRemove users or groups from a project role.
  • runFromCsv: Run actions generated from a CSV file.

    Note

    Ensure that the project role(s) and userId(s) exist at the global level. 


  1. Consider the following example which shows a project key, TC, and has a role defined as jira-administrators:

    Code Block

Info
  • Make sure you have installed the Run CLI Actions in Jira v9.2 app as the action removeProjectRoleActors is compatible only with the app from v9.2.
  • It is recommended to test this scenario in a test environment before implementing it in production.
