Please help me in fetching all the issues in the backlog for a particular project id using rest api.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You can use this API to fetch the data you need :

Then go through the JSON to find issue that match your poject ID

Thanks for the answer, but it is showing only 50 issues. What if I have more than that.

Hi,

You can add the following parameter:

maxResults={value you want}

Clients can use the startAt and maxResults parameters to retrieve the desired numbers of results.

The maxResults parameter indicates how many results to return per page. Each API may have a different limit for number of items returned.
