Create a collection of users under job role

Gather a collection of all users with a job role under the job role object so that we can report on which users are assigned to a specific role from a nested object in a role report.

Especially admins need to see who is in a given role, so being able to explore the users associated with that role. You'd think this collection would be needed for resource management!

I think resource pools bucketed by role could give you a good view from the planner perspective.

You could simply use the API to pull all users with a particular role.

/attask/api/v7.0/user/search/?role:ID=5a0369dd0067c737108876459ce43853

Or if you need to say, count the number of users per role you could do a report

/attask/api/v7.0/user/report/?role:ID_1_GroupBy=true&role:name_AggFunc=count

I agree workfront should better support object cross-references though.
