How to fetch all options from a Custom Field via JIRA REST API

Sai Avinash Duddupudi

In my Jira namespace, while creating a ticket, there is a CustomField dropdown called Client which has some options as shown in the below image.

I am not able to find a way to fetch these options in the dropdown via JIRA REST API.

Can someone please suggest how to get it?

Have a look at https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-custom-field-options/#api-group-issue-custom-field-options

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist- Thanks for the quick reply.

the id for the above client dropdown is customfield_12345

Can you pls tell how to retrive the fieldId and contextId so that I will use the same in the API call to fetch the field options?

Same place, but the line above is "issue custom field contexts". You might want to check "projects" in the same area.

@Sai Avinash Duddupudi do you find any solution for this problem?

CloudOfPHP

If you want to get all the allowed values for a custom field, use the createmeta or editmeta methods. Here is an example resource:

/rest/api/2/issue/createmeta?projectKeys=YOURPROJECTKEY&issuetypeNames=Bug&expand=projects.issuetypes.fields

CloudOfPHP

Use the createmeta methods. you will get allowed options for all custom fields.

REST API url : /rest/api/2/issue/createmeta?projectKeys=<PROJECT KEY>&issuetypeNames=Bug&expand=projects.issuetypes.fields
