Hi,

We  have around 10 default issue types for our project.

But what I observed is, for one of our story/bug, issue type can be changed to only either "change request" or "bug". 

My question is, how to get those filtered issue types(change request and bug)?

I am using Java based JIRA client(4.0.0) to change the jira issue details.

 

Regards,

Sam

You can change to any issuetypes using the 'Move' operation. But I guess you are talking about the ones you can change to, while "Edit"ing the issue?

When "Edit" the issue, you will only see issuetypes that share the same fields are workflow. You can possibly look at the issuetype schemes, workflow schemes etc and figure it out? Or maybe even try the "editMeta" call on one of the issues with the source issuetype and see what target issuetypes it returns.
