Jira ACTION

Get Current User

Returns the authenticated Jira user's account ID, display name, email, and active status. Call this first when the user says 'my issues', 'assigned to me', or needs their Jira identity. Use the returned accountId with Search Issues with JQL (e.g. assignee = '{accountId}') or Assign Issue. Requires a Cloud ID to identify the Jira site. See the documentation.

IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's Jira account once, then configure and run Get Current User from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "jira-get-current-user",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    jira: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    cloudId: "Cloud ID",
  },
})

console.log(result)
