how to get issueId for a given task ?

SergeZ

Hi everyone!

Does anybody know how to get issueId for a given task ? Suppose I've created a new task titled in the following manner ("title-4343" ). Number has not been added by myself. Practice shows that "4343" is not an issueId of the task ( I wish it would be )... So, how could I know the exact issueId for created task ?

Very appreciate your attention!

Thanks a lot!

Hello Sergey Zaystsev,

You view the Page Source from the browser and find something like

<li><a id="key-val" rel="512281" href="/browse/title-4343">title-4343</a></li>

in that 512281 like number is the id for the issue title-4343.

thank you, it works! But now I do think on how to automate this in order to use such approach in programme code... Or may be there is another way to find _id_ in a more programmable way

Programmatically you use issue object to get id and based on the scenario you can get the issue object.

Refer document and use as issue.getId()

hi Sergey Zaystsev,

do you get the issue id ?

SergeZ

Yes, I got it in two ways - first as you described above, second - rest/api/2/issue/{issueTitleHere} and read the response ( json ). IssueId is also available there.

Currently there is another thing which bothers me much more - 212929 ticket... Can you give some guidence on that ?

Sergey Zaytsev,

appreciated if you accept as an answer for this question. Also I don't have much idea about Zephyrs plugin you mentioned above.

May not be the easiest or most direct way to get there, but here is what I do (in Chrome):

View Source (F12)
Right Click the Issue Key and select Inspect - This highlights the needed row in the Source view
Note the number in the (rel="12345") entry.
