Hi,
I am using Jira Restful API to get the issue status for a specific issue. the returned JSON object contains a full description if the status (Name, Icon, Description, ...).
How can I get only the StatusID to minimize the network traffic?
You can use fields property in your GET request:
{JIRA INSTANCE ADDRESS}/rest/api/latest/issue/ISSUE-1?fields=status
where ISSUE-1 is key of the issue. You will not get only status ID but something like:
{"status":{"self":"https://helpdesk.morosystems.cz/rest/api/2/status/1","description":"Issue is opened","iconUrl":"https://helpdesk.morosystems.cz/images/icons/statuses/open.png","name":"Open","id":"1","statusCategory":{"self":"https://helpdesk.morosystems.cz/rest/api/2/statuscategory/2","id":2,"key":"new","colorName":"blue-gray","name":"To Do"}}}}
I guess response is small enough though

Thank you for your feedback. actually this is what I am doing now but it is not efficient if you have
/rest/api/2/search?jql=project%20=%20ProjectName%20AND%20Application%20=%20ApplicationName&fields=description,issuetype,status
When you have too many results. So I was wondering how to get only the StatusID instead of StatusObject.
Thanks in advance,
Jimmy, I don't think it is possible. The only possibility is to implement custom REST API with one endpoint or I found script runner allows you to implement simple REST API endpoints:
https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/rest-endpoints.html#_configuration
It will be the same since the bottleneck is getting data from Jira REST API, so if I implemented my own REST API on top of Jira API, it will be the same since I am still requesting all the information from Jira and ignore what I do not need at my side. it will be more efficient to get what I need only from Jira and not everything.
Do you have any other ideas?
