      Issue Summary

      Currently, Jira Cloud offers a dedicated REST API endpoint (/rest/api/3/users) that allows users to retrieve a comprehensive list of all Jira users.

      Confluence Cloud does not currently have a matching "Get all users" endpoint. Customers are requesting a similar API for Confluence to streamline user management and reporting across both platforms

      Workaround

      To achieve a similar result in Confluence, users must currently follow a multi-step process:

      1. Use the Search users endpoint to return a list of Confluence users.
      2. Limitation: The search results do not include the account status (active/inactive).
      3. To obtain the status, the user must then perform a separate call to the Get user endpoint for each individual user.

      This process is inefficient for large instances as it requires a high volume of API calls to determine which users are active

       

      Another workaround is to Export users from a site
