Syntax for JQL against JIRA to pull customfield based on the field name and not the ID

[Edward Gutierrez]

Due to different CUSTOMFIELD_XXXX across different JIRA instances we need to pull data from JIRA for standard fields (e.g.,"summary") and by custom field names (e.g., Deployment Date) rather than customfield_xxxx)

Our ETL is Ab Initio using CALL API Service we use the following as an example :

'{"jql": "issuetype not in subTaskIssueTypes() AND issuetype != Epic AND issuetype!= Planview" , "startAt":',

in.index,

',"maxResults":1000, "fields":[ "summary","status","assignee","watches","priority","reporter","creator","created","customfield_11975"]}');

How can the JQL be changed to extract by "fields" name and Custom field name rather than customfield_xxxxx?

Hello,

The search rest api method will return custom fields only in the customfield_xxxx representation. You can not change it.
