REST Client get all issues of project

Mokuyobi

Hey there,

I want to get all issue keys of a project via Rest. Is there any method for that?

In the api I do not find any method there for.

hi.

you can trigger all issus of a project just like a jql query...

f.e.

/rest/api/2/search?jql=project="Your Project Key"

Hi C. Faysal,

/rest/api/2/search?jql=project="Your Project Key"

This gives you just first 50 issues, how can i get all the issues? I have around 1348

Marc Menges

Same problem here. Do I have to make two calls in order to get all issues?

Marc Menges

This is everything I could find regarding "maxResults": the maximum number of issues to return (defaults to 50). The maximum allowable value is dictated by the JIRA property 'jira.search.views.default.max'. If you specify a value that is higher than this number, your search results will be truncated.

The problem is, that you may not know how many there are before doing the query. And setting the value to some randomly high number feels wrong. I really don't know why it has to be that complicated. Why is the default 50 and not 'all'?

For everyone who has the same issue: Just use -1 as value for maxResults. That 'somehow' works.

Nacho Pérez Alo

some requests as:

/rest/api/2/search?jql=project="Your Project Key"&startAt="start"&maxResults="max"

where max limit is 1000. If you try a number greather than 1000 rest api returns only 1000 results.
You must to look "total" param in response to know how many request have to do.

FYI look at pagination section: https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/

I tried with "/rest/api/2/search?jql=project" and works.

However for entire string like /rest/api/2/search?jql=project="Your Project Key"&startAt="start"&maxResults="max" , 404 not found error is returned.

I am using JIRA 6.2. Is it not supported?

Please provide space before and after '&'
rest/api/2/search?jql=project="Your Project Key" & startAt="start" & maxResults="max"

Hi All,

What doe the APIs look like if I want:

1 - Get all the sprint IDs of a project?

2 - Get all the issues in a specific sprint?

I'm new to the API syntax and looks like the API docs did not explain the syntax well. I'm continue to loop at the API doc and its API examples while waiting for some good tips.

Thanks a lot guys

John Nguyen_ahze03

I found the example page where it describes how to do all these.

Thanks anyway folks

Would you like to share this example page maybe @John Nguyen ?

The info is on this page:

https://docs.atlassian.com/jira-software/REST/7.3.1/?_ga=2.177837733.1033309859.1522889934-840028647.1519778192#agile/1.0/board/{boardId}/sprint-getAllSprints

Hope it helps.

I have the same issue with worklogs, I can not get more than the first 20,

I tried all the parameters specified in the Jira pagination spec, ex:

/issue/GPIM-7136?fields=worklog&startAt=15

/issue/GPIM-7136?fields=worklog&maxResults=10

/issue/GPIM-7136?maxResults=10

I am always getting back

"fields": {
 "worklog": {
 "startAt": 0,
 "maxResults": 20,
 "total": 43,

Sorted, found this dedicated question https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/How-to-get-list-of-worklogs-through-JIRA-REST-API/qaq-p/533633.

So there are two things one has to do..

Get the total issues in a project with a basic and 'quick and light' query
1. I say light and quick because we are simply establishing the total count of issues in the project in this step.
2. ```
URL: https://<server>/rest/api/2/search?jql=project=<YourProjectKey>&maxResults=0
```
3. This gives a result like -->
```
{ "startAt": 0,
  "maxResults": 0,
  "total": 22114,
  "issues": [] }
```
Iterate over the total number of issues to fetch the desired details/fields of each issue.
1. Note: Maximum allowable fetch seems to be 1000 issues at a time. So let's break it up for iteration using the parameters startAt and maxResults.
2. startAt is the index of the issue in the 'complete list (22114 items as above)'
3. We can also filter the fields that we are interested to fetch. This is especially useful because failing to provide this will result in fetching all fields in each issue, including custom fields. Down below, I'm interested only in key, summary and description fields.
4. ```
for startIndex in range(0, 22114, 1000): 

 search on URL: "https://<server>/rest/api/2/search?jql=project=<YourProjectKey>&fields=key,summary,description&maxResults=1000&startAt={startIndex}"
```

This should be the top answer IMO. Thanks a lot!

just sharing my resolution to the concatenation of results , and getting all the info

i have a jira query function in perl

, which is called for every jql i need and return a ref to all the issues that come back
so i am calling the function as follow :

defining the max results jira allows to retrieve:

use constant {
 JIRA_MAX_RESULTS => 1000,
};

initialize my jql :

my $jira_Jql = 'project = "GIGI" and type in ("Bug" , "Minor Bug") ';

define which return columns I need (instead of getting big hash back this will narrow it a bit ) :

my $returnedColumns = [ qw/key/ ];

or another example to get key + status :
my $returnedColumns = [ qw/key status/ ];

and I call the function :


 my $jiraResultsRef = queryJira($jira_Jql, $returnedColumns);

:the function itself looks as below and iterate via the results

first it run the jql with maxresults = 0 to get the number of results which exist,

then based on that it initializes the amount of iterations need to do in order to get all the info .

last stage is to concatenate the results and returning the ref to this array .

use JIRA::REST;

sub queryJira { my ($jira_Jql, $returnedColumns) = @_;

# set Connection to the jira API.
 $_jiraUrl = "http://$_jira_host:$_jira_port";

 $_jiraConnection = JIRA::REST->new({
 url => $_jiraUrl,
 username => $_jira_user,
 password => $_jira_pass,
 });

# return search total number of results
 my $queryTotalOfResults = $_jiraConnection->POST('/search', undef,
 {
 jql => $jira_Jql,
 startAt => 0,
 maxResults => 0,
 fields => $returnedColumns,
 });

#check the amount of issues returned :
my $totalResultsNumber = $queryTotalOfResults->{total};

# dividing the number with the jira's MAX results which are allowed via "ceil" which will give the number of iteration needed 
 my $numberOfIterations = ceil ($totalResultsNumber / JIRA_MAX_RESULTS) ;
 print ("\n \$totalResultsNumber: $totalResultsNumber \n \$numberOfIterations : $numberOfIterations \n\n");

my $queryResults;
 my @_returnedResults ;

if (not $totalResultsNumber)  #if no results found
 {
 return;
 }
#assuming there are result start looping : 
for(my $counter=0; $counter <= $numberOfIterations; $counter++) 
 {
 $queryResults = $_jiraConnection->POST('/search', undef,
 {
 jql => $jira_Jql,
 startAt => ($counter*JIRA_MAX_RESULTS),
 maxResults => JIRA_MAX_RESULTS,
 fields => $returnedColumns,
 });
#and concatenate them to one big happy  @_returnedResults
@_returnedResults = ( @_returnedResults, @{$queryResults->{issues}} );
 }
# making sure i got the same amount of keys returned :
print ("\n total of keys in the hash :" . (scalar @_returnedResults) . "\n" );
 return \@_returnedResults;
}

When i use this,

search on URL: "https://<server>/rest/api/2/search?jql=project=<YourProjectKey>&fields=key,summary,description&maxResults=1000&startAt={startIndex}"

I got 100 issues, unlike before I only have 50, but I want more than hundreds of issues

Nagarjuna Chilaka

Specify maxResults=None, This worked for me.

I was able to get all the results from jira.
