I am unable to create a Jira Issue from Confluence User Macro!

Question

I am attempting to create a Jira Issue from the confluence user macro. In this macro I am using jQuery to post to my Jira Instance. I am using the application links to do this and when I do I get a 411 error (length required).

var baseUrl = "https://www.my-confluence.co.uk/plugins/servlet/applinks/proxy?appId=MY_ID_NUMBER&path="
var createIssue = "https://www.my-jira..co.uk/rest/api/2/issue";
var datos = {
 "fields": {
  "project":
  {
   "key": "TEST"
  },
  "summary": "Test Ticket",
  "reporter": "me.name",
  "issuetype": {
   "name": "Task"
  },
 }
 };

var parameters = JSON.stringify(datos);

jQuery.ajax({
 url: baseUrl + createIssue,
 type: 'POST',
 dataType: 'json',
 contentType: 'application/json',
 data: parameters ,
 processData: false,
 async: false,
 success: function (data) {
  alert(JSON.stringify(data));
 },
 error: function(error){
  alert(JSON.stringify(error));
 }
});

I have tried many things to try to get this to work. I have use just basic authentication instead of the application link and that also does not work, however it raises a different error to 411. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Figured it out in the end. Had to reverse engineer the confluence macro to add a Jira Issue, the application link URL in my old code does not work. The following code should work:

Query.ajax({
  url: 'https://my-confluence.co.uk/rest/jira-integration/1.0/issues?applicationId=YOUR_ID,
  type: 'POST',
  dataType: 'json',
  contentType: 'application/json',
  data: parameters,
  processData: false,
  async: false,
  success: function(data) {
    alert(JSON.stringify(data));
  }
  error: function(error) {
    console.log('Error');
  }
});

Hi @Spencer Robertson

I'm not a coder & I'm technically novice to coding. Yet I feel i can give you some points which might help you in attaining your requirements.  Yet i'm not sure how good this will hold:

The required fields  Date of First Response and Time in Status are not available. If you can come up with some script to include these , I guess you might be able to take it up .

Regards.
