403 Forbidden on GET method of Jira server REST API call /rest/api/2/issue

[JIRA Timesheet API]

please suggest

Hi, welcome to Community!

Jira will return a 403 for particular requests if the user initiating the action doesn't have permission to do it. For example, from our API documentation about Deleting issues:

• STATUS 403

  Returned if the calling user does not have permission to delete the issue.

My suggestion would be to look at the method you're trying to run on the endpoint, and then check our API documentation for the return codes available in that method. That will definitely give you the cause of the status code for that endpoint.

More generally, it sounds like you might need to make sure the calls are being made by an authorized user.

Cheers,
Daniel
