Hi @charan mallanna and welcome,

Usually responses are accompanied with the corresponding reason. E.g. on cloud, and for the create issue request (via REST), a 400 response means:

  • is missing required fields.
  • contains invalid field values.
  • contains fields that cannot be set for the issue type.
  • is by a user who does not have the necessary permission.
  • is to create a subtype in a project different that of the parent issue.
  • is for a subtask when the option to create subtasks is disabled.
  • is invalid for any other reason.

So my best guess would be for you to see if the create screen contains certain required fields, which you do not provide on send.
