Seriously? no way to get the created at / updated information? . I need to get when users were created and when they were deactivated. Even the audit log does not seem to have that. I can see that "someone" was deactivated / created but I cannot get the account id associated with the change. HELP

I too would like this.. c'mon Atlassian!  

Poke

Would love to see this.

url = "{}/admin/rest/um/1/user?username={}&expand=attributes".format(JIRA_BASE_URL, quote(user_name))

 
returns a json representation of the user, with extended details. createdDate attribute contains the user creation date in epoch format

Kinda weird that this option doesn't exist. Please see this question for a real life situation where this might be needed.

Looks like there has been no activity in awhile, I am surprised to see this is still an issue. It would be nice to be able to query against account creation date. User accounts that were created 2 years ago and never utilized vs. a user account that was created yesterday and not yet utilized are two different things, it would be extremely helpful to be able to tell the difference for obvious reasons.

I would like to use Jira as a tool to support an helpdesk process, having as main ticket creation channel the emails sent by the user to a dedicated mailbox.

Since many users are repeaters, I appreciate the feature in Jira that creates automatically a user account once a new user sends an email to the dedicated mailbox.

Now the limit I see is that I don't find a way to manage these users, for example:
-I would like to monitor the users created on a period of time (each day or each week) in order to do some basic user management like:
-having some numbers
-clean up the display name
-manage user groups consequently
-etc.

therefore I hope this improvement will be implemented the soonest

This was a big surprise that the date a account was created was not implemented from start in Jira. Should not be difficult to implement.

Wow! The userbase table does not have a created_date.
Of course it needs to be there (since version 0.1 ).

I'd love this option...

Simply add the following fields to the jira user table in the DB:

• user creation date
• user update date
• user last login date
