JIRA REST API - how to retrieve issues of a specific status under a filter?

Felix Chan

I would like to retrieve a list of issues by filtering on a filter ID as well as a status of "In Progress".

I am doing something similar to the following:

https://jira.com/rest/api/2/search?jql=filter=11111&status=In+Progress&fields=id,key,status

 However, when I do this, JIRA just returns all of the issues under filter ID 11111, not just the ones that are In Progress. 

 

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Hello Felix,

As far as I know, you can't use such a query parameter to re-filter your filters.

Alternatively, you can save a new filter including " AND status = 'In Progress'" to your existing filter, and use it in REST method.

Here you can see all query parameters that can be used for this REST service:

  • jql
  • startAt
  • maxResults
  • validateQuery
  • fields
  • expand
  • properties
  • fieldsByKeys

Sure, makes sense. It just seems a little tedious to add a new filter with AND status = 'In Progress' since I'm working with a large number of filters.

Found a method that works:

Hello,

You are sending your JQL the wrong way. It should be:

jql=filter%3D11111%20and%20status%3DIn%2BProgress%26fields%3Did%2Ckey%2Cstatus
