DWF Jira Create Issue

DWF Jira Create Issue

Create Jira issues in the DW project using curl against the Jira REST API.

Guardrails

• DO NOT ask the user for cloudId, base URL, or auth details — use the defaults below.
• DO NOT ask for issue type unless it's ambiguous — default to Task.
• DO NOT ask for priority unless the user mentions it — default to Medium.
• DO NOT ask for description if the user gave a clear summary — create the issue with just the summary. Add a reasonable description yourself if the context is obvious.
• DO NOT ask about labels, components, or custom fields unless the user mentions them.
• DO NOT ask for confirmation before creating — just create it and show the result.
• If the user says "bug", use type Bug. If "story", use Story. If "epic", use Epic. Otherwise default to Task.

Prerequisites

Required environment variables (check before first use):

test -n "$JIRA_USER" && test -n "$JIRA_API_TOKEN" && echo "OK" || echo "MISSING: set JIRA_USER (email) and JIRA_API_TOKEN (API token from https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens)"

If variables are missing, tell the user exactly what to set and stop.

Create an Issue

curl -s -u "$JIRA_USER:$JIRA_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -X POST \
  -d '{
    "fields": {
      "project": {"key": "DW"},
      "summary": "Issue summary here",
      "issuetype": {"name": "Task"},
      "description": {
        "type": "doc",
        "version": 1,
        "content": [
          {
            "type": "paragraph",
            "content": [
              {"type": "text", "text": "Description text here"}
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }' \
  "https://redhat.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue" | python3 -m json.tool

With Priority and Assignee

curl -s -u "$JIRA_USER:$JIRA_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -X POST \
  -d '{
    "fields": {
      "project": {"key": "DW"},
      "summary": "High priority task",
      "issuetype": {"name": "Bug"},
      "priority": {"name": "High"},
      "assignee": {"id": "ACCOUNT_ID"},
      "description": {
        "type": "doc",
        "version": 1,
        "content": [
          {
            "type": "paragraph",
            "content": [
              {"type": "text", "text": "Description here"}
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }' \
  "https://redhat.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue" | python3 -m json.tool

To find a user's account ID for assignee, search:

curl -s -u "$JIRA_USER:$JIRA_API_TOKEN" \
  "https://redhat.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/user/[email protected]" | python3 -m json.tool

After Creation

On success the API returns {"id": "...", "key": "DW-NNN", "self": "..."}.

Report back: Created DW-NNN with the summary.
