Call automation via api

[JensH]

Hi

I have been looking for a way to call a given automation on an issue via the v3 rest api.

It can't find any of of that sort in documentation so it may not be possible at all. 

I was hoping for something ala:

.../rest/api/3/issue/#{issue_key}/automations/#{automation_id}/run

Does anyone know if such thing is even possible?

Automation doesn't have a public API yet. There is a suggestion to have it added, AUTO-51.

Thanks.

If any one else comes here and wonder about what my workaround was:

I have extracted the common part of the automation and made the trigger part to be a webhook.
The e.g. Manually changed or some other trigger call this webhook with the issue-key.
The same webhook can be called externally via a script.
