is it possible to Call external REST API while creating issue in jira ?

[kumar]

is it possible to call external REST API while creating issue ? my scenario is while creating the issue we will give the project details and issue type  and summary of the issue and description right , based on the summary or description entered by user while creating the issue i need to route the ticket to particular group.

based on previous tickets/issues ,  summary and description my team has created a classifier which exposes REST API , what basically the classifier does is it will classify the data type based on ticket summary or description and give some output, i need to take that output and need write to issue while creating the issue itself.

is it possible to write the data given by the classifier API to jira  ? .

You would need to develop your own plugin or use Power Script or ScriptRunner plugins to do it.
