Using powershell, getting all issues fields but with issue description I get '@{version=1; type=doc'

[Mark Pizarro]

From JIRA  I need to pull all issues using Powershell and rest api and writing the output to csv. I have the script authenticating and pulling all fields needed and writing to csv with no problem except the description field. the only output I seem to get is "@{version=1; type=doc; content=System.Object[]}".  I just need the text from the description field.

The Description field is just like any other field and should just contain text

If you're using Invoke-RestMethod, you could test it like this:

$ResponseData = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://yourijirainstance/rest/api/2/issue/key-123" -Method Get -Headers $yourHeaders

$theDescription = $ResponseData.PsObject.Properties.value.description

Can you please provide a snippet of your PowerShell.
