Add users or groups to a project role

Works with AI assistants

Use Jira: its Jira Cloud platform REST Project role actors API lets you add users or groups to a project role in a single step (POST /rest/api/3/project/{projectIdOrKey}/role/{id}). Jira also has an MCP server, so an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT can do it for you. capabilities.work can help you get signed up and connected.

• How do I add someone to a project role without removing current members?

Say it to your AI assistant

• Add user {user} to role {id} in project {projectIdOrKey}.
• Add group {groupId} to project {projectIdOrKey}'s role {id}.
