Can I retrieve Jira Product Discovery projects using the Jira API?

[Rowan Barrie]

Hi there,

Is it possible to retrieve Jira Product Discovery projects using the Jira API's Get projects paginated endpoint (or another API endpoint)?

I can see that it's possible to retrieve Jira Product Discovery Ideas using the Jira API (from Third-party integrations) but I'm interested in retrieving at the project level.

Thanks,

Rowan

Hi @Rowan Barrie -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

What happens when you try to retrieve them with the REST API function?  When I tried it just now the JPD projects were returned.

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi Bill,

I feel a bit silly for not having tried this first...indeed I get them back when I leave the typeKey query parameter empty.

I was hoping to be able to fetch Product Discovery projects exclusively though - I just tried setting typeKey to `product_discovery` and that seems to work. Having said that the API docs say:

typeKey

string

Orders results by the project type. This parameter accepts a comma-separated list. Valid values are business, service_desk, and software.

Makes me wonder if I should rely on functionality that isn't documented publicly...

EDIT: I notice also that the returned projectType value is null...a bit disconcerting...

I do see a value in projectTypeKey for the JPD projects when I search for all of them:

"projectTypeKey": "product_discovery"

And, because JPD is relatively new, that may be why this type is not yet shown (or accepted) as a parameter value for that order-results expression.

Still not working sadly

Hi @Aleksandra Leesment 

What is not working?

When I just tried the lookup from the original question with Jira Cloud, it does filter to only return the JPD projects with the example below:

myJiraURL/rest/api/2/project/search?typeKey=product_discovery

Version 3 of the REST API also works for this.

Kind regards,
Bill

Hello,

Using the "projectTypeKey" as variable in my API call didn't work but "typeKey" worked! Thank you!

All the best,

Aleksandra
