Introduction
With the Add/Update entity post function , it is possible to set issue properties in a issue as a hidden field.
The guide explains how to get the stored properties from a REST API call. With that, you can retrieve the information for integration with other systems.
How-to
You can use the following REST API endpoint
curl -X GET https://<JIRA-BASE-URL>/rest/api/latest/issue/<ISSUE-KEY>/properties/<KEY>
Example
If the issue ENPR-4 has the entity stored
|
Entity Key |
Entity Name |
Entity Value |
|---|---|---|
|
department |
Department |
System Reliability Engineering |
The following curl command
curl -u admin:admin -X GET https://jira-instance1.net/rest/api/2/issue/ENPR-4/properties/department
will return
{ "keys" : [ { "key" : "Department", "self" : "System Reliability Engineering" } ] }
