XRAY-Plugin: Teststeps creation via API

[Martin Pohmer]

Hello community,

I have problems to create teststeps via the API - interface.

I am using the XRAY plugin, is the API different to the cloud solution?

Btw. I get an 404 error message.

I am very thankful for every hint

Primary: Jira Cloud with Xray Plugin
Endpoint: https://acialqcentris.atlassian.net
API Path: /rest/api/2/ (Standard Jira REST API)
Type: Jira Cloud (not Data Center)
Endpoint: https://xray.cloud.getxray.app/api/v1

I cannot use the import function cause we want to automate the workflow coming from the user story

Hi @Martin Pohmer 

Welcome to the community.

Which API endpoint are you using and are you on Cloud or DC?

To import test with test steps via Xray, you need to use the following API endpoint or the Test Case importer.

Importing+Tests+-+REST+v2 for API, check the correct URL REST+API and Authentication.

What is you goal.

You can add test steps to a Story.

You need to create a Test work item with test steps, and link this to the Story.

I want to create a test case from an existing user story with python using the API
and want to add test steps into the test case with API not with import.

Creating a testcase already is working and I can add a description
but I cannot create test steps in test details
