R4J REST API - unexpected or faulty parts in response of curl commands (JSON strings)

[Franz Schwarzenböck]

Dear community, 

I´m using the R4J REST API to read out various data from R4J via curl commands.  Unfortunately the returned JSON Strings have sometimes (in my opinion not deterministic, it seems more or less random) parts which are faulty and lead to errors in my decoding function.

Here a short example I just got. If I would expect the following snippet of a string

...,"issues":[]},{"id":9303,"position":8,...

In this case the returned snippet in this string was:

...,"issues":[]}100 25714 0 25714 0 0 59514 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 60220,{"id":9303,"position":8,...

Does anybody know why this happens or what that section "100 25714 0 25714 0 0 59514 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 60220" means? 
Or is it just a bug?

Im using Jira Server v9.12.8.

Thanks!
Franz

HI @Franz Schwarzenböck 

It would be useful for community members to also have the API call you are making listed.

They would have a reference then where tool look, which API option are used?

Please provide some more detail, now its looking at this are results, but where from is unclear.

Hi, 

thanks for your response.
Here are some exemplary curl calls I use for this purpose and where the problem occurs:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <Personal-Access-Token>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" "<Server>/rest/com.easesolutions.jira.plugins.requirements/2.0/ projects/<ProjectKey>/folders/<FolderID>"

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <Personal-Access-Token>"  "<Server>/

rest/api/2/issue/<IssueID>" 

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <Personal-Access-Token>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" "<Server>/rest/com.easesolutions.jira.plugins.requirements/2.0/ projects/<ProjectKey>/folders/<FolderID>?includeFolders=false"

Hi @Franz Schwarzenböck 

As these call refer to the API of a 3rd party app, I suggest to reach their support as the output is defined by them.

It's not related to the Jira API.

Looking at the calls and expected results, it provides numbers.

But I suggest to reach out to the 3rd party support team, to get a definitive answer.
