Overview

Introduction

As part of good governance process, some organisations will conduct audits periodically to ensure only authorised users are given access to their Jira projects.
It is a time consuming and difficult task for Jira admins to generate accurate and up-to-date reports.
This app helps Jira admins with 2 common administrative tasks from the auditors.

  1. User Report - who are the users and when did they just logged in and which groups are they in

  2. Project Access Report - which user has which permission for each project

The reports can be downloaded as Excel/CSV format directly from Jira web page in a timely manner without causing any disruption to other Jira users.

User Report

The User Report allows Jira admins to search for subset of users and export the related information in Excel or CSV format.

It helps to answer common questions

  • Give me the list of users who have not logged in to Jira for the past 90 days

  • Give me the list of service account users

  • Give me the list of users from this company (with the email domain)

  • Give me the list of users who are using Jira Service Management licenses

  • Give me the list of users from the jira-software-users group
