Python JIRA API

[harshita gupta]

Hi , I am new in using JIRA API through python, had a few questions, I am using Jql to get required fields from a particular EPIC but I am only getting 50 results, is there a way I can increase the limit?

Also the fields like summary and decription are being truncated in the dataframe, how can I solve that?   Thanks!!

jql = "\"Epic Link\" = ''ABG-463' AND issuetype = Story ORDER BY priority DESC, key DESC MAXRESULTS 200"

Hi Harshita, 

"maxResults" should not be included directly in the JQL,  rather it should be sent as an additional parameter to the Jira rest api.

depending on what method you are using to make the rest call, it should look something like this:

jira.search_issues(jql, maxResults=1000)

 Let me know if this helps, if not, can you please provide the code snippit where you are making the call using your jql string?

Thanks!
