API no longer returning a field

David Fletcher_wxjhut

Hi there

We've been sending the same "post" request to the JIRA API for a few years now. Today we've seen an error due to a missing field.

Request URL:

https://<company>.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/search

JQL query:

{

    "jql": "project = '<project name>' AND createdDate >= <the date> order by id",

    "startAt": 0,

    "fields": ["customfield_10044"] <plus many other fields>,

    "maxResults": 10 (for testing)

}

Until today, this field returned 3 subfields:

_links

currentStatus

requestType

Now, the field [requestType] is no longer there.

 

In the Jira UI, by navigating to project settings-->fields, if I select "Show locked fields", I can see that the field is there. It's a locked field called "Request Type" and so is mandatory.

Any help appreciated.

This is solved now. It was caused by our IT system team changing the security on the account we use to make the API request.
