How to retain 2 webresponse.body data for us in subsequent web requests?

Jar Lady

Hi,

So basically I am connecting to external API from jira automation rule.

I created the following HTTP requests in the correct order:

1) GET value 1 from external API

2) GET value 2 from external API

3) POST value 1 & 2 external API

As you can see from above, I will need to perform 2 GET requests to retrieve 2 values first before injecting these 2 values into external API. When doing the GET requests, I will use webhookResponse.body.value to retrieve the value. How do I retain value 1 without overridden by the value 2 and without function to Create Variable? I am running on older version of Jira Software i.e .8.20.10 hence do not have the function to Create Variable. Please don't tell me to upgrade the software as I am not the owner.

Hello @Jar Lady

What is the trigger for your rule.

If its an issue, store value 1 as an entity property after Step 1, do your POST and clear out the entity as last step.

Yep, the trigger is when the issue is created. Do you have example of how should I set he entity property? And how should I clear out in the Jira automation rule?

See the last post in the below thread..

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Core-Server-questions/How-do-I-access-a-User-entity-s-properties-set-via-API/qaq-p/92490

Basically from UI of automation, you will store the value1, maybe as below:

{ "Value1" : "{{webhookResponse.body.value}}"}

then you can reference it as

to delete, you can make a REST Call to below endpoint:

/rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/properties/{propertyKey}

See below link:

Please see below screenshot for sample, of course I am skipping your web request call and directly jumping to setting entity value.
