JIRA API for Adding Comments Errors -> Issue does not exist or you do not have permission to see it.

[Barry McLellan]

Hello,

I am having an issue creating comments for my issues using POSTMAN.

I have setup a basic token, and assigned my administrator with the administrator roles in the project. Actually I gave it all 3 roles, admin, service desk and service desk team!

I can create an issue and read comments using POSTMAN (so I at least know the auth is working), however if I try to create a comment, I get the error: Issue does not exist or you do not have permission to see it.

I'm doing a post: {{baseUrl}}/rest/api/3/issue/10015/comment/

{  "public":true,

  "body": {

    "type": "doc",

    "version": 1,

    "content": [

      {

        "type": "paragraph",

        "content": [

          {

            "type": "text",

            "text": "This is a simple comment."

          }        ]      }    ]  }}

From the JIRA console itself, I've run the permission helper and it says I have access to add comments.

Thanks for checking out my question. While waiting I thought, well, I'll run postman again just because... and it worked!

I don't know if the changes I made were extremely delayed or not, but I am posting comments into JIRA now!!
