Create subtask for Jira ticket based on Issue name or description using REST API-SOLVED

Dragan Vucanovic

Hello, i'm new to Jira.

Is it possible to create following scenario:

For JIRA ticket created with subject:Check o365 license

- description: No spare licenses unused.

- create sub tasks for the parent ticket using REST API,

I managed to find a code for adding a comment to ticket by TICKET ID, is it possible to search by subject or description

curl -D- -dvucanovic:pass -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{ "body": "Test comment" }' https://jira.corp.hentsu.com/rest/api/2/issue/TECH-513/comment

I would advise to use the automation plugin to do this, instead of rest api.

Thanks, but i'm asked to do it using REST API,

Dragan,

Then i think this is what you need: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Answers-Developer-Questions/How-to-Create-Subtask-using-Rest-API/qaq-p/508166

The code to create a subtask.

But you will need to find a way to call the script to create the subtask based on the subject.

Thats why i think automation is better, you can just add an event "issue created" where subject contains "Check license" then create sub task.

Thanks a lot Laurens !, can you point me to links or examples for automation plugins, i'm totally noob for this
