[Qi Jiang]

I am trying to search issues by using rest api. But I have found the error below:

MIME type ('application/json') is not executable, and strict MIME type checking is enabled.

No sure if anyone have try access Jira REST api by using jquery

 var tok = adminUn + ':' + adminPw;
 var hash = Base64.encode(tok);
 var authCredentials = "Basic " + hash;
 
$.ajax({
 type: 'GET',
 url: jiraApiBaseUrl + 'issue/' + encodeURIComponent(issue),
 dataType: 'json',
 timeout: issueTimeout,
 success: function(data) {
 jiraCache[data.key] = data;
 processIssue(data.key);
 pending--;
 checkFinish();
 },
 error: function() {
 if(first) {
 lookupLabel(issue);
 } else {
 error = true;
 jiraCache[issue] = 'error';
 processIssue(issue);
 }
 pending--;
 if(!first) {
 checkFinish();
 }
 },

 xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization',authCredentials);
 xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
 }
 });

I think it is because you are sending the wrong MIME type with "dataType: 'json'".
