    body: "The Jira REST API enables you to interact with Jira programmatically. Use this API to \n[build apps](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/integrating-with-jira-cloud/), script interactions with \nJira, or develop any other type of integration. This page documents the REST resources available in Jira Cloud, including \nthe HTTP response codes and example requests and responses."
    title: About
  - anchor: version
    body: "This documentation is for **version 3** of the Jira Cloud platform REST API, which is the latest\nversion. [Version 2](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v2/) and\nversion 3 of the API offer the same collection of operations. However, version 3 provides support for\nthe [Atlassian Document Format](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/apis/document/structure/)\n(ADF) in:\n- `body` in comments, including where comments are used in issue, issue link, and transition resources.\n- `comment` in worklogs.\n- `description` and `environment` fields in issues.\n- `textarea` type custom fields (multi-line text fields) in issues. Single line custom fields\n  (`textfield`) accept a string and don't handle Atlassian Document Format content.\n"

  - anchor: authentication
    body: "### Forge apps\n\nFor Forge apps, [REST API scopes](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/scopes-for-oauth-2-3LO-and-forge-apps/) \nare used when authenticating with Jira Cloud platform. See [Add scopes to call an Atlassian REST API](https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/forge/add-scopes-to-call-an-atlassian-rest-api/) for more details.\n\nThe URIs for Forge app REST API calls have this structure:\n\n`/rest/api/3/<resource-name>`\n\nFor example, `/rest/api/3/issue/DEMO-1`\n\n### Connect apps\n\nFor Connect apps, authentication (JWT-based) is built into the Connect libraries. Authorization is implemented using either \nscopes (shown as _App scope required_ for operations on this page) or user impersonation. See \n[Security for Connect apps](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/security-for-connect-apps/) \nfor details.\n\nThe URIs for Connect app REST API calls have this structure:\n\n`https://<site-url>/rest/api/3/<resource-name>`\n\nFor example, `https://your-domain.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/DEMO-1`\n\n### Other integrations\n\nFor integrations that are not Forge or Connect apps, use OAuth 2.0 authorization code grants (3LO) for security \n(3LO scopes are shown as for operations _OAuth scopes required_). See \n[OAuth 2.0 (3LO) apps](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/oauth-2-3lo-apps/) \nfor details.\n\nThe URIs for OAuth 2.0 (3LO) app REST API calls have this structure:\n\n`https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/<cloudId>/rest/api/3/<resource-name>`\n\nFor example, `https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/35273b54-3f06-40d2-880f-dd28cf8daafa/rest/api/3/issue/DEMO-1`\n\n### Ad-hoc API calls\n\nFor personal scripts, bots, and ad-hoc execution of the REST APIs use basic authentication. See [Basic auth for REST APIs](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/basic-auth-for-rest-apis/) for details. \n\nThe URIs for basic authentication REST API calls have this structure:\n\n`https://<site-url>/rest/api/3/<resource-name>`\n\nFor example, `https://your-domain.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/DEMO-1`\n"

  - anchor: permissions
    body: "### Operation permissions\n\nMost operations in this API require permissions. The calling user must have the required permissions for an operation to \nuse it. Note that for Connect apps, the app user must have the required permissions for the operation and the app must \nhave scopes that permit the operation.\n\nA permission can be granted to a group, project role, or issue role that the user is a member of, or granted directly to a user. \nSee [Permissions overview](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/FQiiLQ) for details. The most common permissions are:\n\n- **Administer the Cloud site**: Users in the _site-admins_ group have this \npermission. See [Manage groups](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/24xjL) for details.\n- **Administer Jira**: Granted by the _Jira Administrators_ global permission. There is a default group for this permission. \nSee [Manage groups](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/24xjL) and [Managing global permissions](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/x4dKLg) for details.\n- **Administer a project in Jira**: Granted by the _Administer projects_ project permission for a project. This can be \ngranted to a user, a group, a project role, and more. \nSee [Managing project permissions](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/yodKLg) for details.\n- **Access a project in Jira**: Granted by the _Browse projects_ project permission for a project. This can be \ngranted to a user, a group, a project role, and more. \nSee [Managing project permissions](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/yodKLg) for details.\n- **Access Jira**: Granted by the _Jira Users_ global permission. Users in the default product access group (for example, \n_jira-software-users-acmesite_) have this permission. \nSee [Manage groups](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/24xjL) and \n[Managing global permissions](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/x4dKLg) for details.\n\n### Anonymous access\n\nSome operations provide support for anonymous access. However, anonymous access is only available if \nthe Jira permission needed to access the object or records returned by the operation is granted to \nthe _Public_ group. See [Allowing anonymous access to your project](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/GDxxLg) \nfor details.\n\nIf an operation is called anonymously and anonymous access is not available, the operation will return \nan error. Note that not all operations that correspond to objects that can be given public access \nprovide for anonymous access.\n"
