Introduction

The User Export for Jira is made of two major components:

  1. Searching Jira users.

  2. Exporting Jira users.

This section focuses on searching Jira users by using the user interface in the User management section of the Jira administration user interface.
The user interface in the User Export for Jira is very similar to the well known Users search in the Jira User Management area. But some minor changes have been made in order to make the search a bit more powerful.
