Hey, 

I've been trying to send an api JQL query to JIRA. 
When I use a regular token, everything works wonderful. 
When I use a scoped token, Im able to authenticate, but I'm not getting any results (empty tickets list). 
I've tried: 

  1. Classic scope - read. 
  2. Granular scope - enable all read items. 
  3. Using the `https://organiztion.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/search/jqlendpoint using GET and POST.
  4. using the `https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/['CLOUD_ID']/rest/api/3/search/jql with POST. 

 

It all amounts to the same result - Status Code: 200
{
"issues": [],
"isLast": true
}

The same JQL, with a regular token / going directly to the link using my SSO, produces 1000+ results. 

What am i doing wrong ?
