Creating Tickets in JIRA

[Anshita]

Hi,

Is it possible to create JIRA tickets using Alteryx Designer. I am able to extract data from JIRA tool but not sure if this capability also exists and if yes then how should I go about it? 

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks Guys..

Hi @Anshita I'd imagine if possible it would be done through an API call, most likely via a POST call. I'd start by looking about in the JIRA community / developer websites. I think these are them:

Thanks,

Hi,

I got this to work with Jira on-prem.  a few parts to this:

1. Authorization 

Formula to add User ID with Password then pass through base64 encoder

Add Basic in front

2. create the URL 

http://your jira here/jiraapps/rest/api/latest/issue/

3. Create the fields JSON to populate in the Jira - I hardcoded this when trying it but you can construct dynamically

4. Pass this info into the Download Tool

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the great answer! Would it be possible for you to share the workflow here? Especially for points 2 to 4.

Cheers,
