This document describes the REST API and resources provided by JIRA. The REST APIs are for developers who want to integrate JIRA into their application and for administrators who want to script interactions with the JIRA server.
JIRA's REST APIs provide access to resources (data entities) via URI paths. To use a REST API, your application will make an HTTP request and parse the response. Currently, the only supported reponse format is JSON. Your methods will be the standard HTTP methods like GET, PUT, POST and DELETE (see API descriptions below for which methods are available for each resource).
Because the REST API is based on open standards, you can use any web development language to access the API.
URIs for JIRA's REST API resource have the following structure:
With context: http://host:port/context/rest/api-name/api-version/resource-name
Or without context: http://host:port/rest/api-name/api-version/resource-name
Currently, the are two api-names available 'api' and 'auth'. REST endpoints in the 'api' path allow you to access most of the information contained within an issue. The current api-version is 2. REST endpoints in the 'auth' path allow you to access information related to authentication. The current api-version is 1.
Example with context: http://myhost.com:8080/jira/rest/api/2/project/JRA
Example without context: http://myhost.com:8080/rest/api/2/project/JRA
In order to minimise network traffic from the client perspective, our API uses a technique called expansion.
You can use the 'expand' query parameter to specify a comma-separated list of entities that you want expanded, identifying each entity by a given identifier. For example, the value "comments,worklogs" requests the expansion of entities for which the expand identifier is "comments" and worklogs".
To discover the identifiers for each entity, look at the 'expand' attribute in the parent object. In the JSON example below, the object declares widgets as being expandable.
Note: The 'expand' attribute should not be confused with the 'expand' query parameter which specifies which entities you want expanded.
You can use the dot notation to specify expansion of entities within another entity. For example "children.children" would expand the children and the children's children (because its expand identifier is children) and the child entities within the plugin.
All methods return accept and return JSON exclusively. Example:
{"expand":"widgets", "self":"http://www.example.com/jira/rest/api/resource/KEY-1", "widgets":{"widgets":[],"size":5}}This documents the current REST API provided by JIRA.
Returns groups with substrings matching a given query. This is mainly for use with the group picker, so the returned groups contain html to be used as picker suggestions. The groups are also wrapped in a single response object that also contains a header for use in the picker, specifically Showing X of Y matching groups. The number of groups returned is limited by the system property "jira.ajax.autocomplete.limit" The groups will be unique and sorted.

Issue attachments
| parameter | value | description |
|---|---|---|
issueIdOrKey | the issue that you want to add the attachments to |
Add one or more attachments to an issue.
This resource expects a multipart post. The media-type multipart/form-data is defined in RFC 1867. Most client libraries have classes that make dealing with multipart posts simple. For instance, in Java the Apache HTTP Components library provides a MultiPartEntity that makes it simple to submit a multipart POST.
In order to protect against XSRF attacks, because this method accepts multipart/form-data, it has XSRF protection on it. This means you must submit a header of X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck with the request, otherwise it will be blocked.
available response representations:
Returned if successful.
Returned if the requested issue is not found, the user does not have permission to view it, or if the attachments exceeds the maximum configured attachment size.
Returned if attachments is disabled or if you don't have permission to add attachments to this issue.
