Issues

Listing issues

GET /issues.[format]

Returns a paginated list of issues. By default, it returns open issues only.

Parameters:

  • offset: skip this number of issues in response (optional)
  • limit: number of issues per page (optional)
  • sort: column to sort with. Append :desc to invert the order.
  • include: fetch associated data (optional, use comma to fetch multiple associations). Possible values:
    • attachments - Since 3.4.0
    • relations

Optional filters:

  • issue_id: get issue with the given id or multiple issues by id using ',' to separate id.
  • project_id: get issues from the project with the given id (a numeric value, not a project identifier).
  • subproject_id: get issues from the subproject with the given id. You can use project_id=XXX&subproject_id=!* to get only the issues of a given project and none of its subprojects.
  • tracker_id: get issues from the tracker with the given id
  • status_id: get issues with the given status id only. Possible values: open, closed, * to get open and closed issues, status id
  • assigned_to_id: get issues which are assigned to the given user id. me can be used instead an ID to fetch all issues from the logged in user (via API key or HTTP auth)
  • parent_id: get issues whose parent issue is given id.
  • cf_x: get issues with the given value for custom field with an ID of x. (Custom field must have 'used as a filter' checked.)
  • ...

NB: operators containing ">", "<" or "=" should be hex-encoded so they're parsed correctly. Most evolved API clients will do that for you by default, but for the sake of clarity the following examples have been written with no such magic feature in mind.

Examples:

GET /issues.xml
GET /issues.xml?issue_id=1
GET /issues.xml?issue_id=1,2
GET /issues.xml?project_id=2
GET /issues.xml?project_id=2&tracker_id=1
GET /issues.xml?assigned_to_id=6
GET /issues.xml?assigned_to_id=me
GET /issues.xml?status_id=closed
GET /issues.xml?status_id=*
GET /issues.xml?cf_1=abcdef
GET /issues.xml?sort=category:desc,updated_on

Paging example:
GET /issues.xml?offset=0&limit=100
GET /issues.xml?offset=100&limit=100

To fetch issues for a date range (uncrypted filter is "><2012-03-01|2012-03-07") :
GET /issues.xml?created_on=%3E%3C2012-03-01|2012-03-07

To fetch issues created after a certain date (uncrypted filter is ">=2012-03-01") :
GET /issues.xml?created_on=%3E%3D2012-03-01

Or before a certain date (uncrypted filter is "<= 2012-03-07") :
GET /issues.xml?created_on=%3C%3D2012-03-07

To fetch issues created after a certain timestamp (uncrypted filter is ">=2014-01-02T08:12:32Z") :
GET /issues.xml?created_on=%3E%3D2014-01-02T08:12:32Z

To fetch issues updated after a certain timestamp (uncrypted filter is ">=2014-01-02T08:12:32Z") :
GET /issues.xml?updated_on=%3E%3D2014-01-02T08:12:32Z

To fetch issues for which custom field 4 contains the substring "foo" :
GET /issues.xml?cf_4=~foo
