Backing up assets

[Steven Vits]

I want to create a flow (using power automate) to backup the assets.

Following some Info i get the workspaceID using an http get action to https://MySite.atlassian.net/rest/servicedeskapi/assets/workspace

I do however get stuck in the next step when I do use the workspaceID from the return of that call. https://MySite.atlassian.net/rest/servicedeskapi/assets/workspace/{'workspaceID'} is giving me a 404 not found response.

Anyone that can help me out with this please?

@Steven Vits ,

Are you including the { } in the url? those are placeholder and you just need to add the id itself behind the /

[Steven Vits]

no I do replace the entire '{'workspaceID'} like

Ah i see what you missed here.

To get the workspace ID you indeed use 

https://<JSM Premium Site Name>.atlassian.net/rest/servicedeskapi/assets/workspace

However then to communicate with the Assets module you actually use

https://api.atlassian.com/jsm/assets/workspace/{workspaceId}/v{version}/object/{id}

So once you have the workspaceid you actually call https://api.atlassian.com/jsm/assets/workspace/{workspaceId} (so api.atlassian.com)

https://api.atlassian.com/jsm/assets/workspace/c2d6a42d-e349-495d-ad64-126e959c61c7/v1/object/4 return:

{
    "errorMessages": [
        "NotFoundInsightException: Could not find Object with id: 4"
    ],
    "errors": {}
}

however using devtools in edge It was possible to retrieve
https://MySite.atlassian.net/gateway/api/jsm/assets/workspace/c2d6a42d-e349-495d-ad64-126e959c61c7/v1/objecttypeexport/4

contaminated with a payload

Not the cleanest way but it seems to work.
