Can I use the JIra REST API to specify different 'workflows' by 'issue type'?

[alex]

How are you.

We would like to specify different workflows for each Jira issue type.

For example, 'Defect' is 'Start' -> 'Review' -> 'End'.

'Change Request' is 'To do' --> 'In progress' --> 'Done'.

We can not seem to implement it with the basic functionality of 'Jira'.

Can you implement using the Jira REST API?

We are waiting for help from experts.

Alex.

Hello, actually, it's implemented with the basic functionality, just be sure you have admin privileges.

First, find the workflows you want to use or create them in "../secure/admin/workflows/ListWorkflows.jspa" (Issues ->  Workflows)

Second, create a workflow scheme and specify which issue type shoul be guided by which workflow (Issues -> Workflow Schemes)

Third, go to project administration page (cog icon in bottom left whenever you have that project issue or page open), workflows and press "switch scheme" and choose the one you created earlier.
