Subscribe to Jira Filter using Rest Api

Question

Hi there,

I have created a Jira search filter, using this request:

POST /rest/api/2/filter

This worked pretty well. Now after I create the filter, I want to get automatically subscribed to it.

Is there a way to do it with the rest API? Or is the only possible way to do it manually?

Thanks.

Edit: In the documentation: https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.4.1/#api/2/filter-createFilter

I have found the "subscriptions" property, but I can't seem to figure out how exactly I have to write this, for correct syntax.

Hello Nico,

You can do a GET to see the filter subscriptions values you have via:

GET /rest/api/2/filter/favourite?expand=subscriptions

But Unfortunately there is not an option to edit the subscription, and we have this Feature Request tracking interest in adding a method to support editing subscriptions.
