Default Priority in JIRA Cloud (REST)

[Sahan Kanuwana]

Hi,

Does any one know of getting "Default Priority" in JIRA Cloud. I referred to the API doc and found only two below REST calls.

/rest/api/2/priority

/rest/api/2/project/{id}

Both these returns all the information but no indication of what it the default priority. Like below.

{

"self": "https://sahanprod.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/priority/2",

"statusColor": "#f15C75",

"description": "Serious problem that could block progress.",

"iconUrl": "https://sahanprod.atlassian.net/images/icons/priorities/high.svg",

"name": "High",

"id": "2"

}

Please answer if some one has any idea.

Thanks

Sahan

Hi Sahan,

Currently, there are no parameters that we can add on this API to check what is the default priority on the instance.
I created a feature request for our dev team to check the possibility to add a flag where we can easily find which one is the default:

- https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-69966

For now, it's necessary to check directly in the instance what is the default one.

Regards,
Angélica

Great Thanks Angelica for the confirmation. Appreciate the quick response! I will mark this as accepted until we get the feature developed.
