"Specify a valid project ID or key" / creating issue

Тимур Балиашвили

Hi,

I'm trying to create an issue the same way I have been doing.

{
"url": "https://ХХХХХХХ.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue",
"headers": [
"Content-Type: application/json",
"Authorization: Basic ХХХХХ"
],
"data": {
"fields": {
"summary": "​{{ticket_field__5211}}, {{ticket_field__5318}}",
"issuetype": {
"id": "10001"
},
"project" : {
"id" : "10000"
},
"customfield_10032" : "{{ticket_id}}",
"customfield_10033" : "2",
"customfield_10034" : "{{ticket_field__5318}}",
"customfield_10035" : "{{ticket_field__5212}}",
"customfield_10044": {
"type": "doc",
"version": 1,
"content": [
{
"type": "paragraph",
"content": [
{
"text": "{{ticket_field__16580}}",
"type": "text"
}
]
}
]
}
}
}
}

 Here is the response:

{    "errorMessages": [],    "errors": {        "project": "Specify a valid project ID or key"    }}

 But the project id in my request is correct.

I've also tried to use the project key instead, the same problem remains.

 

Thank you

Code wise this looks fine (it also validated to proper JSON).

Are you sure the user that you are authenticating with has the proper permissions for that project? (browser project)

Errors with the REST api can sometimes be obscure, it might tell you you have a wrong ID because it cannot validate the ID. (if you don't have access)

If you try it with another project, does that work?
