How to fetch project and task assigned to user

[Vishal Nerkar]

Hello All,

Could you please tell me API to fetch projects and tasks assigned to a user? Do we have any way?

Thanks,

Vishal

Hello,

You could use Jira Rest Api:

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.12.0/?_ga=2.127670541.1295891213.1536040679-65270402.1526147845#api/2/search-search

You should pass:

assignee = youruser

as the JQL parameter and you will get all issues, assigned to this user. Issues contain information about the project, they belong to.

I am new to Jira API, could you please tell me API to update user project and task information as well?
