{"errorMessages":["You do not have permission to create issues in this project."],"errors":{}}(base)

Question

It is interesting I get this error because I have provided admin access to the project for the user who is trying to connect.  My goal is to create a issue under the project via REST API. I checked and user has access to REST API.

In GUI User is able to create Issue but not via REST.

Any suggestions appreciated.

I am having exactly the same problem as described above. I have create a Personal Access Token for the very account I am able to create issue types in JIRA through the browser. This simple command should work: curl -v -D- -H "Authorization: " \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ --request POST \ --data '{"fields": {"project": { "key": "CIP"},"summary": "curl","description": "curl script","issuetype" : {"name": "Task"}}}' https://.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue But it does not with the error: {"errorMessages":["You do not have permission to create issues in this project."],"errors":{}} Some AI LLM tool suggested this: Verify PAT Permissions: Go to your Atlassian account settings Navigate to Security > Personal access tokens Check that your token has the necessary permissions (read:jira-work, write:jira-work) Consider creating a new token with explicit permissions for issue creation But I do not see those options on my JIRA installation. I can only create tokens with an expiry date. Nothing else. This is the JIRA I am using: Build Number: 100283 Build Date: 2025-04-10T17:15:24.000+0200 Deployment Type: Cloud If you still think we are doing something wrong, can you suggest some different way of debugging this that is different than what I have tried already? Thank you!

The account you are using for the REST call needs to be granted "create issue" permission in the project.
