How can I find the original key for a project?

Assume I'm on either server or datacenter.

There is a project whose key is XYZ. The key wasn't always XYZ, it was something else in the past. When? I don't know. Sometime.

I want to find the original project key. How can I do it?

Hi,

You should be able to retrieve data you want with this api call

rest/api/2/project/<project key>?expand=projectKeys

Take a look at the "Note for developers" section here

I would look in the project_key table. Find the current project key using the select statement

select * from project_key where project_key = '<PROJECT_KEY>';

After you've found the project id, find all the keys associated with that project id by using the query

select * from project_key where project_id = '<project_id>'.

In theory, the project key with the lowest ID number should be the original project key for your project.

String proj_key = issue.getProjectObject().getOriginalKey()

I use this piece of code to find original attachments directory
