Pulling Data from Forms

[Blake Brixton]

I am working with my company's IT contact to create a new project in Jira. I would like to utilize the forms feature. We would like to pull the data from multiple submitted forms into a report or dashboard.  However, my contact is unsure of how to do it.

@Blake Brixton -

To pull form's data you can use Form's REST APIs, here is the link to access the REST API documentation - https://thinktilt.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PFDEV/pages/2026668074/v1.2.0+API+Documentation.

However, based on my understanding that Form's REST APIs are currently available for Jira DC/Server envs only and not yet available for Jira/JSM Cloud env. 

In addition even for the on-prems envs, please note that Form (prior known as Proforma, it is acquired by Atlassian not too long ago), its APIs has not been incorporated/integrated into Atlassian's Jira/JSM REST APIs setup as of now.  So,you will not be able to pull form's data by using the normal Jira/JSM REST APIs call.

I would recommend you to contact Atlassian Support (https://support.atlassian.com) to find out if they have any newer update on Proforma REST APIs readiness for Jira/JSM Cloud env.

Sorry.

Hi Joseph, my team has the same request to pull data from a form to feed a dashboard. Is this answer from a few months ago still relevant or have these been any changes to either forms or dashboards that could help us further? Thanks in advance!

So they bought a forms builder that doesn't allow you to collect data from the form fields to use for automation?  Who's the genius that signed that check?
