REST-API With Bash

[Incle YC]

Good morning
I am using JIRA in my company.

I've been using JIRA to find out that there is an API and I'm testing it.

I tested using bash to automatically generate JIRA, and I was successful

#!/bin/bash

jira_user="id"
jira_pw="pass"
jira_server="jira.test.com"
project="SECURITY"
issuetype="Inquiry"

api_data="{\"fields\":{\"project\":{\"key\":\"${project}\"},\"summary\":\"jira test\",\"description\": \"my description\",\"issuetype\":{\"name\":\"${issuetype}\"}}}"

curl -u "${jira_user}":"${jira_pw}" -w "<%{http_code}>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://${jira_server}/rest/api/2/issue/ -X POST --data "${api_data}"

The reason I leave an article is
Assignee can not be specified.

api_data="{\"fields\":{\"project\":{\"key\":\"${project}\"},\"summary\":\"test\",\"description\": \"my description\",\"issuetype\":{\"name\":\"${issuetype}\"}}}"
api_data2="{\"fields\":{\"assignee\":{\"name\":\"${assignee}\"}

->

[incle@incle jira]$ ./jira2.sh
./jira2.sh: line 17: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
./jira2.sh: line 18: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Hello,

Do you mean, that you have some kind of error ,when you specify an assignee? What is the error?

[Incle YC]

api_data="{\"fields\":{\"project\":{\"key\":\"${project}\"},\"summary\":\"my summary\",\"description\": \"my description\",\"issuetype\":{\"name\":\"${issuetype}\"}}}"

Is there an option here to change the assginee?

[Incle YC]

Is this the right way?

You missed a couple of parenthises

api_data2="{\"fields\":{\"assignee\":{\"name\":\"${assignee}\"}}}
