How to get generic workflow id to be applied to create new project via REST

[A S]

Hi,

how can I find the id of "original/generic" workflow scheme that I've been newly created? not the one that has been applied to any project. AFAIK, The only way to know the workflowscheme is to retrieve from this api which is the workflow id that has been applied to a project.

GET /rest/api/2/project/{projectKeyOrId}/workflowscheme

I tried to input the id to the POST create new project below in the "workflowSchemeId" :

POST /rest/api/2/project

but get this error,

Could not add project: 400
 msg: {"errorMessages":["Can not construct instance of java.lang.Long from String value 'SCALAR(0x3b54c58)': not a valid Long value\n at [Source: org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteInputStream@61b8486f; line: 1, column: 99] (through reference chain: com.atlassian.jira.rest.v2.issue.project.ProjectInputBean[\"workflowSchemeId\"])"]}

Which Jira version do you have? This rest call is only available for Jira version 8.7.1.

Here exists: https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/8.7.1/

Here not: https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.6.1/

Edit:

I have tried on Jira verstion 8.5.1 and it does not work. This is why i am asking :)

I have 8.7.1 in the create project GET.

[Christos Moysiadis]

well i tried now in Jira 8.8 and its working perfectly.

GET > http://localhost:8080/rest/api/2/project/10400/workflowscheme

it works at 8.7.1 as well, can you create a project that inherits properties of your workflow scheme (10400)?

I still get this error, 

Could not add project: 400
 msg: {"errorMessages":["Can not construct instance of java.lang.Long from String value 'SCALAR(0x3b54c58)': not a valid Long value\n at [Source: org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteInputStream@61b8486f; line: 1, column: 99] (through reference chain: com.atlassian.jira.rest.v2.issue.project.ProjectInputBean[\"workflowSchemeId\"])"]}

Do you know why?
