Create an issue with Rest API

[Saba Ghani]

Hi I'm trying to create bulk of issues, using file upload in postman and getting this error.
I can import/ export manually so permission thing is out of question.
I am getting error saying
"the issue doesn't exist or I dont' have a permission?
The URL I'm using is https://url/rest/api/latest/issue/Proect- id/attachments

Hi Saba, welcome the the Atlassian Communinty!

Can you clarify what you're trying to do exactly? Are you trying to add attachments?

The proper endpoint would be  /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/attachments. You shouldn't use project id. Attachments are added to individual issues o use the issue id instead.

Hi @Saba Ghani 

The end point is /rest/api/3/issue and method should be POST with the correct JSON body.

This page has details.

How are you planning to create issues in bulk? You will have to write a script in your favourite programming language to do that and read the issues' data from somewhere like a csv file or another tool.

For attachments you will have to do make another rest call when the issue is created.

I hope it helps.

With postman you can actually loop over a csv So I'm assuming Saba is doing that.

But indeed, I think the endpoint is not right.

Aw- Thanks I have got your point and resolved my issue in postman.
