Change order of Issue Type when creating Issue

[Alex Macfarlane]

Hi, I'd like to change the order the Issue Types appear in the dropdown when creating an Issue on my Team Project Board. 

In the Settings of the Board, the Issue Types appear in alphabetical order. However when creating Issues on the board, the dropdown where you select the Issue Type is ordered by the Issue Type creation date (I think). 

Is there a way you can change the order of the Issue Type dropdown?

Currently it's in an order that doesn't make it easy for my team to select tasks in chronological order for our projects.

Thanks!

I discovered that I was not properly base64 encoding my user and API token. I also found that I was using Authorization: Bearer when I should have been using Authorization: Basic.

These changes resolved my issue.

I have also tried using this:

--user <username>:<api_token>

Instead of this:

--header Authorization: Bearer <api_token>

As I have done anything with OAuth for REST APIs in Jira. Perhaps that's what I am missing, but that seems to be more about add-ons than scripts.
