Using API to open issues

Question

Hi guys,

I have Jira server in my organization, and I would like to call API to open issues on Jira from my internal CMP system, intead of open it manually via Jira GUI.

How can I get the API list and instructions to use them?

Thanks

Afonso.

Hi @Afonso Neto I think this is what you're looking for: Developer API

Hope that helps.

Hi @Afonso Neto ,

Do you mean, want to create jira tickets from your internal CMP system? If yes, you can use jira rest API to create/open jira tickets.

Rest API referrence @ https://docs.atlassian.com/jira-software/REST/9.10.0/

Hi @Afonso Neto Here is the Jira Server API Create Issue Doc : 
https://developer.atlassian.com/server/jira/platform/jira-rest-api-example-create-issue-7897248/

curl -D- -u fred:fred -X POST --data {see below} -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:8090/rest/api/2/issue/

{
"fields": {
"project":
{
"key": "TEST"
},
"summary": "REST ye merry gentlemen.",
"description": "Creating of an issue using project keys and issue type names using the REST API",
"issuetype": {
