Jira REST API - get total logged time for one issue.

[Chris Taylor]

Using the Jira cloud REST API, how can I get the total logged time for one issue i.e. the sum of all the individual work logs?

If I browse an issue on the web, this is shown in the Time tracking section as a value for the 'Logged' field.

Chris, you'd want to use the end point /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}.

The field that you are looking for is called "timeSpent". It is located inside of the "fields" object.

Thanks,
