rest api link issue while creating issue

Ranjith Nair August 3, 2017

I'm trying to execute CURL command as shown in Jira documents for creating an issue.

I'm using the below command;

curl -D- -u a.b@c.com:myPassword -X POST -data data.txt -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:8088/rest/api/2/issue/

 

Content of data.txt is as below;

{"fields": {"project":{"key": "CRTQ"},"summary": "Test Summary","description": "This is description","issuetype": {"name": "Bug"}}}

 

Response received;

curl: (3) Port number ended with '\'

What am I missing or doing wrong?

I think your curl command is malformed, try:

curl -i -u a.b@c.com:myPassword -X POST -d @data.txt -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:8088/rest/api/2/issue/
