json code to create issue in Jira

[Dennis Celen]

hi there

I'm using bubble.io to build a custom job form.  we use it also for other stuff and it works great. 

my question is, does anybody know how i can create an issue in Jira using json code?

what authorisation method should i use, and how is the code concerning authentication?

I have https://blog.developer.atlassian.com/creating-a-jira-cloud-issue-in-a-single-rest-call/ in my bookmarks.

You'll need to use the Oauth authentication though.  Start with a skim of https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/intro/

hi I tried this but i cant do anything with the curl....

this is what i can fill in:

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Yes, you will need to get the Oauth sorted - the basic authentication is no longer available (it's not as secure as it should be)

[Dennis Celen]

alright I fixed it. thanks, 

do you also know how to add attachments to the issue when its created?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Nice!  I always get the authentication wrong at least once when I'm coding.

Attachments are at https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-attachments/#api-group-issue-attachments - you'll find a lot of other stuff in that API doc as well!

i tried the json code, but it fails, is the url still the same?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

The url won't change because you have moved on to Oauth.

Have you adjusted the URLs to match your Cloud system?

[Dennis Celen]

yes, and i get the following message:

{

    "errorMessages": [

        "Invalid request payload. Refer to the REST API documentation and try again."

    ]

}

further more, what bout the number on the end, is that right?

"self": "https://<ourcompanyurl>.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/attachments/10000",

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist-

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

How are you doing the Oauth?
