Obtain transition ID for API request

[Salvador Arreola]

Hello! How can i get all transitions ID? I want to change status' issue using an API POST request, I've seen other questions but they access to Jira Service Managemente, but I'm using Jira Software (Scrum project) and management workflow panel is very different

Regards!

Hi @Salvador Arreola and welcome to the community!

You are running a TMP, but you can get the transitions of an issue by using the following request:

https://YOURINSTANCE.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/YOUR_ISSUE_KEY/transitions

You can read more about it here.

Hi!, with that request i can see the current transition, but i want to obtain all of them more easier, anyway i'll do manually

Thank you!

The above request will give you all available transitions from the current status of this issue. If you want all ID's, why don't you go on the workflow, see it as text and get the ids from there?

That menu doesn't appear for my project (Scrum project), i think only apply in a Service Management project. I resolved my problem with a bash script using the request that you show me before.

Thank you!

Thanks! In my case (my privileges) unable to see the transition IDs tho' in advanced search or the workflows menu.

Therefore I'm using API (with enough privileges, that provided by our DevOps team) that able to shows the transitions ID
