JIRA on creation of new issue

Question

Hey mates,

today i was trying to create a new issue using REST API from JIRA and I always get the error:

HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed

I am using OAuth authentication to create and edit issues. I already edit a few fields on issues that are already created, but now I am trying to create new issue.

URL

https://xpto.pt/rest/api/2/issue/

JSON code

{
 "fields": {
 "project": {
 "key": "ProjectKey"
 },
 "component": "CAIX - TEST 1",
 "summary": "TESTE REQ. NAME",
 "issuetype": {
 "name": "Issue"
 },
 "labels": ["CASE-TEST", "REQUIREMENT", "Tests"]
 }
}

Note: i change the project key and page of JIRA for this example.

My url:

My JIRA version is V7.1.9.

I already search and find that is another way to create issues using rest/api/2/issue/createmeta, but i dont want to use that.

Do you have any ideia of whats is wrong ? If necessary i can put put a example of the code.

I already find the problem :)

Needed to change to HttpPost and need to change the IssueType.

@Martin Varga AND @Alexey Matveev Thanks for your help guys! If u need something from me, contact me :)

What @Alexej_G said. Also:

rest/api/2/issue/createmeta

is not used to create issues. This is the meta data documentation for the fields you are sending to the create endpoint.

Replace new HttpPut(uri) with new HttpPost(uri)
