Jira API 400 Bad Request when creating a ticket on Jira Prod Instance but not on Jira Dev Instance

Oliver Hart

Hello,

I have a php Project, this creates Jira Tickets over the API.
The authentification works with publickey and the atlassian OAuthWrapper class (https://bitbucket.org/atlassian_tutorial/atlassian-oauth-examples/src/default/php/src/Atlassian/OAuthWrapper.php).

The ticket creation works perfect on a Jira Development Instance but not on a productive cloud instance. On the productive instance, I get a 400 Bad Request answer.

The Source Code for the Request (shorted):

require_once __DIR__ . "libs/jira/vendor/autoload.php";
$oauth->setPrivateKey($pathToPrivateKey);
$oauth->setConsumerKey($jiraConsumerKey);
$oauth->setConsumerSecret($jiraConsumerSecret);
$oauth->setCallbackUrl(urlencode($appServerName . $appPath . "connect/callback/"));
$oauth->setRequestTokenUrl("plugins/servlet/oauth/request-token");
$oauth->setAuthorizationUrl("plugins/servlet/oauth/authorize?oauth_token=%s");
$oauth->setAccessTokenUrl("plugins/servlet/oauth/access-token");
$obj_request = $oauth->getClient($oauth_token, $auth_token_secret)
    ->post("rest/servicedeskapi/request", [
        "Content-Type" => "application/json"
    ], json_encode([
        serviceDeskId" => 16,
        "requestTypeId" => 500,
        "requestFieldValues" => [
            "summary" => "SomeText",
            "description" => "Ticket Discription"
        ]
    ]))->send()->json();

As written above, the 400 Bad Request happens only in productive not in the dev instance.

I hope somebody can help me with this problem.

Best regards

I have found the solution of my problem.

I have send

summary
description

but the Request Type has only the summary field and not the description field.

I have finally found the missing JSON Response. With Postman not with PowerShell.

I have saved the output and if you save the response it doesn't show up in the program.

I have to thanks @Alexey Matveev and @Payne for your ideas.

Hello,

A json must be returned with the 400 error, in which you can see the exact error. Could you have a look what is inside this json?

Oliver Hart

Hello,

thanks for the quick answer.

I have exportet the Code in an own file and wrapped it in a try and catch statment (If I doesn't make the Try and Catch, I get a 500 Error because of the 400 Error) and made a Test run.

I also var_dump() the Exeption and got this:

string(129) "Client error response
[status code] 400
[reason phrase] Bad Request
[url] https://x.jira.com/rest/servicedeskapi/request"

I don't know if this helps, but I don't have something else.

Best regards

I am not familiar with php. But there must be a more meaningful string in response.

Payne

You're specifying project ID 16 and request type ID 500; are they the same in your 2 instances?

Oliver Hart

Hello,

I have checked my Request with Postman and also with PowerShell "Invoke-WebRequest" Here are the specs

PowerShell:

$url = "https://x.jira.com/rest/servicedeskapi/request"

$header =  @{"Authorization" = "Basic -base64string-";"X-Atlassian-Token" = "nocheck"}

$body = @"
    {
        "serviceDeskId":"16",
        "requestTypeId":"500",
        "requestFieldValues":{
            "summary":"Summary Text",
            "description":"Deesscription Text"
        }
    }


$res = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -Method Post -Body $body -Headers $header -ContentType "application/json"
Write-Output $res.StatusCode

PowerShell Output:

Invoke-WebRequest : The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.
In line:16 Character:8
+ $res = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -Method Post -Body $body -Headers  ...
+        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-WebRequ 
   est], WebException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeWebRequest 
   Command

Postman:

Authentification:

Headers:

Request-Body:

Response: (The Body is empty therefore I have the headers screenshotted)

--------------------------------------

This is all I get from the API

Best regards

No, the Development Instance has only 1 Project, only 3 Custom RequestTypes and some RequestTypes from Jira (ca. 19 Request Types at all)

Payne

That may well be your problem; you're trying to create an issue in a non-existent project for a non-existent request type.

Oliver Hart

Unfortunately not. I get the IDs from the API.

API Call for all Servicedesks:

https://x.jira.com/rest/servicedeskapi/servicedesk

API Call for the Custom RequestTypes:

https://x.jira.com/rest/servicedeskapi/servicedesk/{servicedeskID}/requesttype
