[dharm dutt]

Hi, need to pass dynamic variable in JQL

item="ABC-01"

https://jira.com/rest/api/2/search?jql=key='$item'%20ORDER%20BY%20duedate%20ASC&fields=id,key&maxResults=100"

I get error saying $ is reserved word

Hi @dharm dutt 

You do not indicate how you are trying to do this: in some script / program, in an automation for Jira rule, in a spreadsheet, etc.

Perhaps use whatever concatenation functions exist in your environment to build the URL first and then us it for the REST API call.

Kind regards,
Bill
