ScriptRunner REST API GET METHOD

Question

Hi,

Could someone show me a simple GET REST API example with username and password?  I have searched and didn't find anything useful for me to use.

Thanks in advance!

You can either manually add it to the uri.path or apply a the query as a simple map object using uir.query. Like this:

uri.query = [showFiles:true]

Thank you Peter-Dave. This code helps me a lot. Also i request you that how to pass the parameter in URL like "/rest/gitplugin/1.0/issues/issueId/commits?showFiles=true"

"/commits?showFiles=true"

This will depend on the target system you are trying to connect. They may have different ways of accepting un/pw.

If it's basic authentication then something like this may work:

import groovyx.net.http.ContentType
import groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder
import groovyx.net.http.Method

def url ="the url of the system your want to connect to: e.g htts://jira.example.com"
def endpoint = "the endpoint path e.g. /rest/2/issue/XXX-123"
def un = "username"
def pw = "password"
def encoded = "$up:$pw".toString().bytes.encodeBase64().toString()
def returnResponse 
def httpBuilder = new HTTPBuilder(url)
try{
   httpBuilder.request(Method.GET, ContentType.JSON) {
      headers."Authorization" = "Basic $encoded" 
      uri.path = endpoint
      response.success = { response, json ->
         if (json) {
            returnResponse = json
         }
      }
      response.failure = { resp, data ->
         if (data) {
           returnResponse = [error: "Failed to make http request to $url/$endpoint", statusLine: resp.statusLine, data: data]
         } else {
            returnResponse = [error: "Failed to make http request to $url/$endpoint", statusLine: resp.statusLine]
         }
      }
   }
} catch(e){
   returnResponse = [error: "Some other error occured: $e"]
}
returnResponse
