Calling the Rest APIS from jira scriptrunner

Question

I want to call the external systems(any other App) API from Jira ScriptRunner using a groovy script.

i ran the script but its throwing errors because of these libraries

import groovy.json.JsonOutput
import groovyx.net.http.ContentType
import groovyx.net.http.HttpResponseDecorator
import groovyx.net.http.RESTClient

Errors:

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed: Script1.groovy: 4: unable to resolve class groovyx.net.http.RESTClient @ line 4, column 1. import groovyx.net.http.RESTClient ^ Script1.groovy: 2: unable to resolve class groovyx.net.http.ContentType @ line 2, column 1. import groovyx.net.http.ContentType ^ Script1.groovy: 3: unable to resolve class groovyx.net.http.HttpResponseDecorator @ line 3, column 1. import groovyx.net.http.HttpResponseDecorator

can any one help me on how to get this working is there any way we can upload libraries in script runner which are popping this errors.

Thank you.

Hello, don't know if it is still valid and if you are on Cloud/Datacenter - but this might help you - there are also examples included: REST API FAQs (adaptavist.com)

ScriptRunner have built-in tools for REST API calls, you don't need to rely on the "groovyx" packages.
