To list issue types for a Jira project, you need to:
- Obtain the
cloudIdfrom your Nango dashboard for the Jira connection. -
Run the
scripts/get-issue-types.jsscript with the following arguments:bash node scripts/get-issue-types.js <cloudId> <NANGO_SECRET_KEY> <connectionId> <provider>cloudId: The Cloud ID of your Jira connection in Nango.NANGO_SECRET_KEY: Your Nango secret key.connectionId: The Connection ID of your Jira connection.provider:jira

bash node scripts/get-issue-types.js efe59576-1147-4e4b-96b5-7615e308a36b cf0e919c-5280-4908-9865-0baa6df2eb10 9072b6a9-a672-4b55-9566-f31a191b341d jiraThe script will output a JSON array of issue types with their IDs and names.
Creating a Jira Issue

scripts/get-issue-types.jsscript as described above. -
