Why do I keep getting a 404 "Oops, you've found a dead link." with JIRA 7.4.3 REST API?

Nadia Pugglesworth

I'm using JIRA Server 7.4.3 on a localhost on port 9000 with the default embedded database configured. I can access JIRA dashboard and create tickets, etc. with http://localhost:9000.

However, when I try to access the JIRA REST API to examine a ticket I created with an ID of 10000 using the URL http://localhost:9000/jira/rest/api/2/10000, I get the 404 "Oops, you've found a dead link." error. It seems I cannot access the REST APIs no matter what I do.

I've tried searching for days whether there are any configurations I need to set but from everything I could find, the REST APIs are configured to work by default in JIRA 7.

Can someone let me know how I can enable the JIRA REST APIs in my configuration as described above? Thank you.

Nadia,

I think that the correct URL for the service you need is

/rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}

In your case

/rest/api/2/issue/10000

I can't believe I overlooked that! Thank you very much for pointing it out. When I entered the following URL into my browser:

http://localhost:9000/rest/api/2/issue/10000

I got what I expected as a response:

{"expand":.....

Thank you very much for pointing out my error!

Great!

Gaston, may I ask one more question regarding the Atlassian SDK for plugin development? I downloaded the latest version from the Atlassian download site yesterday. I installed it using all the defaults including port 2990 and it appeared to install without issue. Running atlas-version in a Windows Powershell window displays the appropriate information. How can I test it in a browser to ensure it installed properly? When I provide the URL, http://localhost:2990/jira, I get a "Can't reach this page" error from the browser. I'm hoping I've overlooked something that's as simple as the previous question I had.

One of the many joys of having ADHD is that I have grand visions that are quite creative yet fail miserably in practice because of lack of attention to details!

Thanks again for your help on the previous question! Looking forward to your response.

How?

That solved my problem too!

I am new to Jira and using HTTP requests programatically. I was following the instructions at https://developer.atlassian.com/server/jira/platform/rest-apis/

which had 'jira' in the HTTP request, so that's what I copied & pasted.

Thanks goodness Google found this page!
