Subtask disappear from the active sprint when I change state.

[Emmanuel J]

Hello

I have this behavior only in one project.

I try to investigate and after a disappearance of the subtask in the board 

(if I open the parent task, the subtask is clearly visible. All status are mapped in the board ) 

I do this 2 jql queries

If I filter with the current sprint, one subtask disappear of the result....
it seems that the displayed value is not the real value.

To fix this behaviour I should change the sprint of the parent task to another sprint  save and select the old value and save again.

Has anyone ever had this kind of problem before?

Thank you

Not entirely JSON-RPC, but I was able to create new issues by sending some JSON code as a HTTP POST request:

Request to: http://my_jira_machine:7991/rest/api/2/issue/

An HTTP Authorization header was added with authentication details of an existing Jira user

HTTP ContentType header set to : "application/json"

Data, e.g. something as straightforward as:

'{ "fields": { "project": { "key": "' + ProjectCode + '" }, "summary": "' + Summary + '", "description": "' + Description + '", "issuetype": { "name": "Bug" } } }'

This was not from Javascript, but I guess it would be possible to do this using e.g. JQuery:

Hope this helps! :)

Thanks Ethan. But when I execute it against my local JIRA instance, 'http://localhost:8081/rest/api/2/issue/' to check the availability, I am getting the following error

Unauthorized (401)

Encountered a 401 - Unauthorized error while loading this page.

The fact that you see a 401 means that at least there apparently is a site/API there to call.. an improvement over the 404 ;)

Are you sure that you are sending the correct authentication data?

My example works from Flash, where I added the headers in the following way:

// Authentication
var encoder:Base64Encoder = new Base64Encoder();
encoder.encode("username:password");
http.headers["Authorization"] = "Basic " + encoder.toString();

From Javascript you can do similar things. See for example:

Thanks. Also I would like to add an attachment(a word doc with requests) to the createISSUE call which I am sending to my JIRA local instance. How should I handle that?

It is hard to tell what your requirement is but createIssue can be used for automation needs.

[Fresh Grad]

Yes, I am planning to invoke createIssue API remotely where one of the need is for automation.

Hi, which version of JIRA are you using? If REST/JSON to create issues you need JIRA 5.x. Refer to http://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/ for the documentation.

I am using JIRA 5.1.4
