How to send and receive details to WebService from Jira

[Omprakash Thamsetty]

Hi,

I have a requirement to send details to another system and create the tickets there and get the response with ticket number and update in Jira. 

For this we have WebService to create the ticket, written in Java. Required to passing the parameter to create the ticket over there. They are returning the ticket number too.

Question is here. How I can configure there WebService URl and by pass the argument to create the ticket in our Jira. I needs to update the created ticket number in one of our Jira field. 

I was looking at webHook and workflow postfunction but unable to find passing the argument and getting the return results. Can anyone guide me how I can configure this.

Thanks,

Om

I tried using httpbuilder and getting the results. But How I can read the each field values, which are getting response in text/xml format. Please see below code.

import groovyx.net.http.*
import static groovyx.net.http.ContentType.*
import static groovyx.net.http.Method.*
import groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder
import groovy.xml.*
import groovy.util.XmlParser
import groovy.util.XmlSlurper

import groovyx.net.http.Method

import org.apache.log4j.Category


def Category log = Category.getInstance("com.onresolve.jira.groovy.PostFunction")
// Set the logging level to DEBUG
log.setLevel(org.apache.log4j.Level.DEBUG);

//def String WSDL_URL = "http://URL-links"
def http = new HTTPBuilder( 'http://url-links' )
String soapEnvelope =  """<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ser="http://service.ws.pcr.pts.com/">

            <systemUserID>USERNAME</systemUserID>
         </arg0>
      </ser:prDetails>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>"""


      http.request( POST ) {  
          headers."Content-Type" = "txt/xml"
             headers."Accept" = "application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8"
             headers."SOAPAction" = "getDetails"
  
           requestContentType = ContentType.XML 
          body=soapEnvelope

            response.success = { resp, xml ->  
                       log.debug "${xml}"
                

               //THIS ONE NOT WORKING               
                //def xmlOutput = new XmlParser().parseText(xml)
                //def casenumber = resp.children().find({it.name()=="caseNumber"})?.text()
                //log.debug ""${casenumber}""
                 //log.debug " case number ${xmlOutput.caseNumber.toString()}"
              
            }

            response.failure = { resp, xml ->
                log.debug "fail" 
                 }
        }

Thanks I was able to use your example and response back. Did you ever figure out how to use the response and store it in an issue field ? I found this article .. which I will try out soon https://dzone.com/articles/the-simple-way-to-parse-json-responses-using-groov
