Jira automation rule send web request issue

Question

Hi Team, I am trying to add an automation rule in Jira cloud to create a branch in Gitlab using condition: Send Web request Below are the my settings: Web request url: https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/%2f/repository/branches HTTP Method: POST Web Request body: Custom data branch={{issue.customfield_10043}}&ref=main Headers: Headers "PRIVATE-TOKEN: glpt-xxxxxxxxxxx" Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Note that i also tried to change the project id to use project_id instead of url encode also, i tried with Content-Type application/json but still i am getting below error when trying to validate the web request. Response code: 404 { "message": "404 Project Not Found" } When i tried to run the same web request via curl POST command it works (meaning branch is created in gitlab). Is there anything i am missing or not configured correctly ? Please assist Regards, Azeem

So the project you are referencing does not exist, or you don't have the correct permissions or you payload is not correct.

Something you are using in the web request call is not correctly formatted.

This is in the call you are making towards the github API, that is providing you a 404.
