JIRA Cloud API - Github Commit Information

Jeremy Deane September 19, 2017

For a given issue, JIRA Cloud API does not have a complete list of Github commits, It only displays the commit count and date of last commit.

customfield_11100"{repository={count=9, dataType=repository}, json={"cachedValue":{"errors":[],"summary":{"repository":{"overall":{"count":9,"lastUpdated":"2017-09-19T15:44:04.000-0400"},"byInstanceType":{"githube":{"count":9,"name":"GitHub Enterprise"}}}}},"isStale":true}}

But in the Browser UI, additional details are displayed with hyperlinks to the commit details.

How can we gain access to this commit information via the JIRA API?

Note: The JIRA Issue API JSON does not have any other Git information (e.g. URL, Organization, or Project). So there is no way to dynamically construct an API Call to Github. For example, searching commits with JIRA Issue ID.

I was looking for the same thing. I tried what's mentioned here but it always returns error that the issue ID is invalid.

I'm trying to hit the API, get the data for JIRA issue and its respective Github commits/PRs/branches.

Parthan,

The example is from an older version of the API; so those parameters do not seem to make a difference.
