rest api to correct get assets list and properties

Question

Dear All,

I have all my assetts loaded in JIRA and I am coding a powershell script that sync this assetts with other softwares (like AD).

I was able using the rest api to query the list of objects but unfortunately I am not abe to get all properties of the single object (extended and in this case the object is a sim card).

Documentation seems laking to me on the subject could you pls point me out some link or github where I can have a starting point?

Thanks to all in advance

Hi Paolo,

Thank you for your response.

you get the following structure,

first level, contains the total results and includes a "Values" structure

"startAt":0,
"maxResults":25,
"total":2,
"values": [..., ...]               <---------
"objectTypeAttributes": [..., ...],
"hasMoreResults":false,
"last":true,
"isLast":true

This structure contains your assets returned from the AQL

"workspaceId":"500dasd-af5d-9d742bc8807c",
"globalId":"500dasdasdasda42bc8807c:1",
"id":"1",
"label":"LG 7000",
"objectKey":"GAD-1",   <<<<<-------here you have the object key that you can match
"avatar",
"objectType", [..., ...]        
"created":"2024-11-28T22:22:02.651Z",
"updated":"2024-11-28T22:22:53.197Z",
"hasAvatar":false,
"timestamp":1732832573197,
attributes [..., ...]               <<<<<<,----------- here you have your attributes
_links []
"name":"LG 7000"

The attributes will be structured the following way

"workspaceId":"500dasd-af5d-9d742bc8807c",
"globalId":"500dasdasdasda42bc8807c:1",
"id":"9",
"objectTypeAttributeId":"85",
objectAttributeValues  [..., ...]  ,   <<<<<----- and in here, you finally have it
"objectId":"1"

The value of the attribute will be included as follows

"value":"42",
"searchValue":"42",
"referencedType":false,
"displayValue":"42"

As you can see, here you have an asset object (GAD-1) which is an LCD Screen (object type), with details 
name = LG 7000

size = 42

I hope this helps you understand It better.

Thank you.
Hector

Thanks Hector,

I already arrived at point 2 using the post method in the endpoint. But the list I get I cannot understand how to get the single object detail

I see now that you've raised the question for Jira Cloud, not DC. I'm sorry for misreading it.

For Jira Cloud the Asset REST API documentation shows

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/assets/assets-rest-api-guide/workflow/

Then, you can do a POST to the "/object/aql" endpoint, which is the option to use now.

Thank you.
