How to get URL to a created issue from API

Zharkyn Kassenov

Hey there, I am creating issues using API, however, I cannot find URL for created issues in the response body.

 

How can I get the URL for a created issue using API?

 

Thanks!

Hi Zharkyn,

The Cloud Rest API documentation for issue creation shows that the issue key and URL are returned. Atlassian's example is below.

{
    "<span>issues</span>": <span>[
        {
            "id": "10000",
            "key": "TST-24",
            "self": "http://www.example.com/jira/rest/api/2/issue/10000"
        },
        {
            "id": "10001",
            "key": "TST-25",
            "self": "http://www.example.com/jira/rest/api/2/issue/10001"
        }
    ]</span>,
    "<span>errors</span>": <span>[]</span>}

 The id value is the issue ID, key value is the issue key, and the self value is the issue URL. Cheers!
