Hi community, I have a Jira instance underhttps://<instance>.atlassian.net/jira/Everything is fine, and I would like to use REST API to, let say, creating an issue/bug automatically. Something like this: https://developer.atlassian.com/server/jira/platform/jira-rest-api-examples/#creating-an-issue-examples Looking at this example I see that it connects to localhost:8080 and use `-u charlie:charlie` (name and password - basic authentication).Well, basic authentication is fine, but how should authentication work with my <instance>.atlassian.net ?Can not find documentation/example about this, pls help...Thanks in advance!
Hi @Manoj Kumar Gangwar is it correct that on Free Plan there are no restrictions on using REST API ? (I mean, it is the same as with another versions of JIRA)
Hi @D Welcome to the community!
Please refer to the below doc for Jira cloud.
https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-postYou can create the API token and use it as an authorization.
https://support.atlassian.com/atlassian-account/docs/manage-api-tokens-for-your-atlassian-account/
Yes, you can use the REST API in Jira's free plan. the free plan provides access to the full functionality of the Jira REST API.
Hi @Manoj Kumar Gangwar , one more question:Is it really necessary to specify ALL fields listed here:https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-post ?
Can I just specify summary, description and issuetype?
No, you can specify only required fields which is required on your project at the time of issue creation.
Great, thanks!
