How do we Map custom field ids to custom field names

[venkateswarlu]

I have integrated Jira with other remote systems and it has given the responce in JSON like this

                <issue>

                                <id>41468</id>

                                <self>http://dev-jira.lamresearch.com:8080/rest/api/2/issue/41468</self>

If you are using Jira  Rest APIs, you can use `expand=names` parameter to get names of custom-field in response.

Like this, https://<jira_base_url>/rest/api/2/search?maxResults=10&expand=names

[venkateswarlu]

Thank you so much for your quick responce .

I have a doubt in your URL what search?maxResults=10 indicates?

[Derek Lee]

The maxResults parameter will get up to (but it's merely a suggestion) that number of results. In this case you'll get up to 10 tickets.

I have played with maxResults = 1000 but usually get 100 tickets in response. setting the maxResults provides a parameter that is useful when you write scripts to account for pagination of the results.
