Query to get component of a project

[guess85]

Hi all. At the moment I use soap method to get the list of components of all projects. But it is a bit slow, and become more slower if I have many projects.

Can I perform a JQL query, and a REST post, to get the list of all components of all projects?

I didn't find any help on this page http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Advanced+Searching

Thanks to all.

I don't think it would be JQL since that's specific to finding issues.

Calling the REST URL: https://yourJIRAurl/rest/api/2/project/PROJECTKEY/components

will get you the list of components in JSON for that project (PROJECTKEY). From what I can tell there is no REST call to get the list of projects so you'll have to know your project keys.

REST has a lower overhead than SOAP so it might be a tad faster.

Thank you, I will use this API.
