How to get ToDO issues using JQL?

Question

Hi all,

I am trying to get only "To Do" issues in Jira. I am using below REST API command.

url ="https://domain_name.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/search?jql=project=JiraRest&status=TODO&maxResults=1000"

Unfortunately, it is giving all the jira issues,

Can anyone help me with this please?

Thanks in advance

If you enter the URL in your browser you should get the proper response.

E.g. this:

https://rudy.atlassian.net/rest/api/latest/search?jql=project=alpha&status=To+do&maxResults=100

Is working for me (I've limited to 100 results for speed).

{ 
   "expand": "schema,names",
   "startAt": 0,
   "maxResults": 100,
   "total": 93,
   "issues": [{
   ...
   }] 
}
