How to extend the JIRA search to offer results from our own Search Engine via REST API

Hi,

I am new to JIRA. We have an on premise JIRA for our bug tracking.
We are looking for ways to integrate our Search engine with the JIRA Software so that our users can perform search and view results from our Search Engine from within JIRA Software interface. This will help our users avoid creating JIRAs that can be avoided by finding solutions from Knowledge Database. Our search service offers full search features via REST API. We need to extend JIRA default Search to perform a REST call and display results along with JIRA's search results. A federated search is what we are looking for.

Please point me in the right direction as I am new to JIRA Software development/extension.

Thank you,
PC Rao.

Please take a look on Jira REST Api - https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/latest/

Especially please focus on search section - https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/8.22.2/#search

Hi @Sebastian Krzewiński
Thank you for quick response.

My question is about Outbound REST API calls from JIRA to our Knowledge DB rather than inbound. Screen+Shot+2020-07-07+at+9.24.10+am.png

As shown above, I would like to add "Show My Knowledgebase results" link that would display our Knowledgebase results upon clicking.

Thanks,
PC Rao.

As I understand you correctly - you want to get results from Confluence. Did you consider use Confluence REST API?

@Sebastian Krzewiński

No, I want to get the results from our custom Knowledgebase.

our Knowledgebase supports querying by REST API. However, JIRA should make

an outbound REST call to our Knowledgebase to fetch the results. I am looking for a

way to make outbound REST Call from JIRA. Thank you for your guidance.

PC Rao.
