REST API create project

Administrateur Hawaii

Hello,

I've been searching on this forum and Google to find a way to create projects using Rest API. I'm not familiar with all of this and I don't find solutions really easy to understand.

Could someone explain how to do it ? I've generated credentials, even the base64 Basic auth for the request.

Thank you ! a

@Administrateur HawaiiFirst of all, welcome to the community!

Service Desk project are special kind of Jira Projects, so you can create Service Desk project using Jira's REST API by passing appropriate options, which all are explained in below API documentation link.

Please take a look at this - https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/?utm_source=%2Fcloud%2Fjira%2Fplatform%2Frest%2F&utm_medium=302#api-rest-api-3-project-post

ok I followed instructions but when trying with curl I get

curl --request POST --url 'http://mysite.net/rest/api/3/project' --user 'usermail:api key'
--header 'Accept: application/json'
--header 'Content-Type: application/json'
--data '{
"notificationScheme": 10021,
"description": "Example Project description",
"lead": "Julien",
"url": "http://mysite.atlassian.net",
"projectTemplateKey": "com.atlassian.servicedesk:simplified-internal-service-desk",
"avatarId": 10200,
"name": "TESTAPI",
"assigneeType": "PROJECT_LEAD",
"projectTypeKey": "service_desk",
"key": "TESTAPI",
"categoryId": 10120
}'

what should I change ?

THx

@Administrateur Hawaii Can you please elaborate on the error you are getting?

Oh sry I forgot half of the message...

So Curl tells me that http protocol isn't supported. I mean I did exactly as in the tutorial this is going to make me crazy.

oh! it is simple error, replace all your 'http' instance with 'https', Jira Cloud doesn't work on http, it only work on https, and hence the error.
