issues with worklogs of all users within specific period

[vladimir_kovalsky]

verb: GET

endPoint = `/rest/api/3/search`

jql: 'worklogDate >= "2022-04-01" AND worklogDate <= "2022-04-30"'

fields: 'summary,key'

as response to this request I get issues created/changed by me (my email is used in Authorization header) with worklogs with month of April.

question: how to get issues for ALL users in organization? is it about updating jql or using different approach? thanks

Using the JQL search API is the way to go to search out all issue for any user within your organization. Your JQL result depends on other permission or filter factors configured within those projects you're searching. Therefore, understanding what issues your user is able to search within your instance would be help you. Also, you still need to use the issue search endpoint to see the contents of the issue afterward.

so if my permissions allow to get any specific issue by requesting 'GET /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}' then why this request gives only a subset of all issues?

[Prince Nyeche]

Again, the JQL results depends on other permissions! If you search through the UI, do you get the same result as the API? My guess is for you to evaluate if you have the permission to view all worklogs within your project and not just your own.
