# Issues

**APIs profiled:** 0

An index and topic collection covering issue tracking, bug tracking, and project-management APIs that expose issue, ticket, task, and work-item primitives. Issue tracking APIs are the connective tissue between engineering, product, and operations work — they capture defects, feature requests, user stories, and tasks, then move them through configurable workflows from creation to resolution. This collection includes developer-centric trackers like Jira, Linear, GitHub Issues, and GitLab Issues; project- and work-management platforms like Asana, ClickUp, Monday.com, Trello, and Wrike; product-discovery trackers like Productboard and Shortcut; classic open-source bug trackers like Redmine; and flexible work-item stores like Notion, Airtable, and Smartsheet. It is distinct from the customer-support topic (Zendesk-style help desks) and from incident management (which lives under monitoring).
