Webhook events not delivered for comments

Jeff Haynie

We are trying to get webhook events from comments (create, update, delete). I can't seem to get any comment related events to fire no matter what i try.  Other issue events fire OK.

Example request:

 

{

  "url": "https://webhook.site/7e5af5b2-b1bb-4dfd-ad4d-0a476201cb8e",

  "webhooks": [

   {

      "jqlFilter": "project = TEST",

      "events": ["comment_deleted"]

   }]

}

I'm using OAuth 2.0 Bearer token. When I create the jira:issue_created event it fires OK.  Using the above (or variations with comment_created, comment_updated etc) never fire no matter how i test creating, updating or deleting comments on an issue.  Also, I've tried all variations of jqlFilter including the issueKey itself, etc.  

It seems like the restricted fields for the JQL filter aren't even on the comment payload but I can't verify anything since it never delivers.  There is no documentation related to issue comments I can find anywhere on the internet or any examples digging through discussions or in Jira itself.

i ended up adding some additional oauth scopes to the app and it seems to now work.
