Is it possible to submit an issue to the Jiva collector from a Windows Form application ?

[Patrice de Boisgrollier]

Hello,

We would like to send issue to the Jiva issue collector directly from our application which is a Windows form application rather then from a trigger tab in a Web page. Is it possible to do so ? I have already integrated via the Jira Soap client the possibility to create an issue in Jira which works but have been enable to proceed the issue to the issue collector via the Jira Soap client. That would be more practical for us knowing that we could prefill information directly from our application when a bug occurs and we need to be able to do it on the end user's computer which is distant.

Thank you for all the information you can give us

Or simply add a WebBrowser control to your application and load whichever site has the issue collector hosted inside that.

Renjith, I'm very interested in implementing what you suggested. Ive set up a windows form that opens the URL in a windows web browser control (with vb.net). When I click 'report bug' the issue collector form looks all kinds of wrong... Ive set up many different issue collectors with different settings but they always appear in the web browser form with messed up scroll bars, overlapping text, stretched out bigger than the form (no matter how big the form is...) etc.

Here's an example of the simplest issue collector I set up and how it looks in the web browser control:

Issue collector requires a web interface (it's javascript)

Why dont you just use the REST APIs? docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/
