Unable to create tickets from SAP CALM on JIRA getting the error "The target project doesn't exist"

Hello, 

I'm facing an issue while integrating Jira with SAP CALM for incident management.

By trying to create a ticket from CALM I receive the following error "The target project doesn't exist or you don't have permission to create issues in it." - check below

The integration between CALM & Jira is based on fixed destination with the API token created for my user & a mapping rule both shown below

I’m the Project owner, administrator and almost full access to project roles & Jira instance is on the free subscription 

Please let me know based on your experiences what could be missing and why am I still getting the project might be missing or I don't have permission!

 

Thank You,

Mina

Hi @Mina Abdelmalek 

Does this space exist on the Jira side?

Does the user the API token belongs to have access on the space in a role that is granted "create issue" permission?

As the message you get relates to a permission issue fro the user trying to execute the issue creation.

Hello @Mina Abdelmalek 

Can you please provide a screen image for evidence that a project with the key "SDA_Test_Space" exists in the consultsda site?

How did you create your API token to use during this integration? Did you create your token with or without scopes?
