Confluence jira client how to#
Create a new Project Role (for how to add a project role click here: Managing Project Roles).This has limitations - email notifications will not work and these users won't be able to see a project's status. If you do decide to setup the clients as seated users, then you will want to follow these steps to make sure that the client only has access to appropriate information:
You’ve just seen one of the many REST API resources provided by Jira and other Atlassian tools.If you want to have clients be able to log into your system and see specific information, check statuses, etc., they will need to be a seated user (that is they count as one of your licensed users). You can set up JIRA to allow for anonymous users to create issues and even further allow this to happen via email without having the clients be seated users. The final request should look like below:Īfter clicking on Send, the response message will appear: (Note: the colon is required between username and password). As we are creating the data from outside Jira, you must provide a user that has create issue permission in Jira. The only difference between the previous example in Atlassian REST API Browser app and Advanced Rest Client is that the login is required in the header section, as shown in the table above (username:password). I’ve already configured my Jira instance as the following: Now let’s build the body of the request using JSON format to create a ticket. On the right side you will see a brief description of the API, the parameter options and the HTTP method that should be used to perform the request successfully.įor this example, you don’t have to provide any parameters or the HTTP method you should use to create the issue is POST method. To get the correct API resource, you need to use either the API browser of the Atlassian Developer Toolbox app or Atlassian documentation Jira REST API documentation.Īs seen in the screenshot above when typing the word create, we automatically highlight the API to perform the action. You will have to click on the Drop access link in the information message for the search APIs bar shown below to appear.įirstly you will need to define the action you are trying to perform – for example create a ticket, attach a file, add a user or get the information of specific custom field.įor this tutorial we will try to create a ticket using REST. After installing the app, go to Systems > Advanced Section > REST API Browser , and you should see the below: Atlassian REST API BrowserĪtlassian REST API Browser provides a browser for available Jira REST resources. With these resources you can create, update, edit and delete data in Jira using standard HTTP methodslike GET, PUT, POST and DELETE. Jira provides a wide range of REST API resources that helps developers create communication between Jira and other applications. Earlier this year, Atlassian developers announced a new module and REST APIs interface that is described as more straightforward to implement and maintain. REST (Representational State Transfer) is an architectural style and approach to communications that is often used in the development of web services. It is the mostly widely used API paradigm on the web and now it is frequently used to connect applications to the Cloud. So let’s take brief look into Jira REST API. At Valiantys, we use Jira REST API to execute repetitive tasks like creating issues with attachments in bulk, or when developing apps for Jira. We have also seen some of our clients use REST API to create a specific report or to sync Jira issues with other systems.
