Creating issue with jira rest java client api with High priority

[Shashi Singh]

Hi 

I'm working on an integration of a program management product with Jira. The program management product has priority values defined as High, Medium and Low with key value of 1, 2 and 3 respectively. 

Since these values do not map directly to Jira out of the box priority values of 1 - Highest, 2- High, 3 - Medium, 4 - Low, 5 - Lowest, I'm wondering if there is a java API that I can use to get the Jira priority filed id by passing the name and then use that value in IssueInputBuilder.setPriorityId(Long id) for issue creation.
