Query remaining estimate using soap

[Benoît Barbier]

Hi,

I'm using JiraSoapService.

It works well. But I do not understand how to query the remaining estimante for an issue.

Remaining estimate are not inside work logs, so, where is it ?

Thanks for your answer.

Ah, from memory, the SOAP interface never gave you the estimate stuff.  You either have to write your own add-on to expose it, or upgrade to using REST

Ok, this explain why I didn't find the value.

So, I will try another way to find my estimate stuff.

I havn't used Soap for this puporse, but I assume it would be similar to making rest call. 

In rest you simply get an issue by passing its ID.
[GetIssueByID() | https://jira.pk-lhr.u-blox.net/plugins/servlet/restbrowser#/resource/api-2-issue-issueidorkey]

And then just access the remainingEstimate value from the JSON reply. 

I see there are similar methods in Soap as well. 

[getIssue Soap | https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/rpc-jira-plugin/latest/com/atlassian/jira/rpc/soap/JiraSoapService.html#getIssue(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)]

Thanks, but unforunately, there is no remaining estimate inside the SOAP "getIssue" reply.

That's why I ask for the knowledge of community.

The only things inside "getIssue" are the following :
