Hi,

I am trying to create issue using C# but getting this error:

this is my code:

public static async Task CreateJiraIssueWithApiToken()
{
// Jira REST API endpoint for creating an issue
string apiUrl = "https://softnames.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/";

// Jira authentication credentials
string username = "my@domain.com";
string apiToken = "xxxxxxxxx";

// Create the JSON payload for the issue
string payload = @"{
""fields"": {
""project"": {
""key"": ""MUFFIN""
},
""summary"": ""Test Issue"",
""description"": ""This is a test issue"",
""issuetype"": {
""name"": ""Bug""
}
}
}";

using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient())
{
// Set the API token as the password for basic authentication
string auth = Convert.ToBase64String(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes($"{username}:{apiToken}"));
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new System.Net.Http.Headers.AuthenticationHeaderValue("Basic", auth);

// Set the request content type to JSON
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new System.Net.Http.Headers.MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));

// Send the POST request to create the issue
var response = await client.PostAsync(apiUrl, new StringContent(payload, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json"));

// Check the response status
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
// Issue created successfully
Console.WriteLine("Issue created successfully.");
}
else
{
await Clipboard.SetTextAsync(response.ToString());

// Error creating the issue
Console.WriteLine("Failed to create the issue. Error: " + response.StatusCode);
}
}
}

Hello @Softnames Corporations 

As per the example shown in the v3 Create Issue endpoint documentation, you must format the description field using ADF.

If you want to format the description field using plain text / Wiki markdown, you must use the old v2 Create Issue endpoint.
