Hi peeps,

I'm using the Jira API call .../rest/api/3/screens to retrieve all the screens in my instance.

But I'm getting even more screens than the ones shown in the Jira interface: Settings/ Issues /Screens.

 

The API call retrieves 452 screens, but in the Jira interface, I can only see 314.

There are some screens retrieved by the API call that I'm not able to find in Jira. 


Does anybody know why? 

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Esteban

Hi @Esteban Diaz 

Try using query parameters like type or id to filter the results and match what you see in the UI and also Use the "Get issue type screen schemes for projects" API endpoint to identify which screens are actually in use.

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards
