What is my cloud id

Simran Khalsa September 25, 2018

According to this documentation https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/. In order to use the api the specified URL would be https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/{cloudid}/{api}. What is {cloudid} and {api} referencing and where do I find them within my site?

Hi Simran,

As referred to the OAuth 2.0 authorization code grants (3LO) for apps documentation:  

  • client_id: (required) Set this to the Client ID for your app. Find this in App details for your app in app managementFor example, 11223344-a1b2-3b33-c444-def123456789
  • {api} is the base path and name of the API. For example, /rest/api/2/project for the project endpoint in the Jira REST API. 

Hope this explains

Cheers, Syauqi

The atlassian team response seems to be incorrect or perhaps outdated? -- it would seem you need to make a request to https://api.atlassian.com/oauth/token/accessible-resources with your token to get your "cloudId"(comes back as "id") -- which is NOT your apps client_id.

 

to https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/oauth-2-authorization-code-grants-3lo-for-apps/  has more details

Hi,

I did not succeed with the above approach to get the cloud id.

One other easy way to get the cloud id is to go to https://admin.atlassian.com/

Click on your "site" of interest and you will get the Cloud id in the URL 

Resulting URL Example:


https://admin.atlassian.com/s/<Your_cloud_id>users

@Vahe Vardanyan I am also asking myself this question. Were you able to get this resolved?

The simplest way to find your site's Cloud Id is via: https://my-site-name.atlassian.net/_edge/tenant_info

Which, when you replace "my-site-name" with your Jira's site name, will return the following

{"cloudId":"93ac17d7-fe07-4ba3-a53c-5caeb380fff8"}   

 This is really poorly documented, and the only mention I saw of it was a one liner on the new Forms API docs

Edit: This endpoint is also documented in the main JSW API docs, although again only a one liner
