"errorMessages":["Issue does not exist or you do not have permission to see it."] w/ projectKeys

[Sean Wendt]

I'm attempting to use the `/rest/api/3/issue/createmeta` API to get issue information to use for creating issues.  My Basic Auth appears to work fine because I can hit the API and it returns data as expected:

curl --request GET \
--url 'https://foo.bar/rest/api/3/issue/createmeta' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic foobar'

 But if I use any of the project keys returned and add it to the URL, e.g. `https://foo.bar/rest/api/3/issue/createmeta&projectKeys=FOO` I always get "errorMessages":["Issue does not exist or you do not have permission to see it."]

I then tried using any of the other query string parameters, e.g. issuetypeIds, etc.. and this leads to the same error message.

I've checked Permission Scheme on the projects and Create Issue is granted to Users and Admin (I'm an Admin but another person with User role also is facing the same issue).  I'm a bit stuck as to why this error is happening.

query string begins with &  instead of ? :facepalm:

Hi @Sean Wendt 

I'm not sure, but isn't it just project=FOO and not projectKeys=FOO?

Cheers!

No, but I'm embarrassed to say this was all due to user error, the query string begins with &  instead of ? :facepalm:
