How to determine the Kanban Board an issue was resolved in via JIRA API

[Trozza]

The Problem / Challenge

I want to work out the Kanban Board (rapidViewId) an issue was marked as Resolved (Done, Fixed etc) in using the JIRA API.

What I've tried:

• I've called the rest and agile endpoints for an issue to get its details, trying to find some details like you get for if an issue was resolved in a sprint. I can't seem to find anything which links an issue to the board it was closed in or linked to.
• I've done 'expand=changelog' on the rest API and I can see when it was changed from In Progress to Done but it doesn't link it to the board it was done in.

Possible ideas but unsure how to do:

• Thinking if it's possible to find all the boards which sit under a project and then finding all the issues in that board as an option.
• This process is run as a batch job so we are able to call the API multiple times and doesn't need to be fast.

Limitations on Solution:

I work for a company so I don't have flexibility on the following:

• Our JIRA version is 7.6.6 and aren't upgrading soon.
• We can not use any Marketplace Plug-Ins.

Hi @Trozza 

The logic under "Possible ideas" isn't quite right - a board is just a view into some data, so boards don't "sit under a project", they could get data from multiple projects.

If I understand your requirements correctly and you know the board id, this might work :

1. Get all issues associated with a specific board, using this API call
2. For each issue, use expand=changelog as you tried

If this doesn't give you what you're after, let me know what I'm misunderstanding
