--- name: jira description: | Jira API integration with managed OAuth. Search issues with JQL, create and update issues, manage projects and transitions. Use this skill when users want to interact with Jira issues, projects, or workflows. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). compatibility: Requires network access and valid Maton API key metadata: author: maton version: "1.0" --- # Jira Access the Jira Cloud API with managed OAuth authentication. Search issues with JQL, create and manage issues, and automate workflows. ## Quick Start ```bash # First, get your cloud ID python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/oauth/token/accessible-resources') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF # Then search issues python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/search/jql?jql=project%3DKEY&maxResults=10') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ## Base URL ``` https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/{native-api-path} ``` Replace `{native-api-path}` with the actual Jira API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to `api.atlassian.com` and automatically injects your OAuth token. ## Getting Cloud ID Jira Cloud requires a cloud ID. Get it first: ```bash GET /jira/oauth/token/accessible-resources ``` Response: ```json [{ "id": "62909843-b784-4c35-b770-e4e2a26f024b", "url": "https://yoursite.atlassian.net", "name": "yoursite" }] ``` ## Authentication All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header: ``` Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY ``` **Environment Variable:** Set your API key as `MATON_API_KEY`: ```bash export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY" ``` ### Getting Your API Key 1. Sign in or create an account at [maton.ai](https://maton.ai) 2. Go to [maton.ai/settings](https://maton.ai/settings) 3. Copy your API key ## Connection Management Manage your Jira OAuth connections at `https://ctrl.maton.ai`. ### List Connections ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=jira&status=ACTIVE') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Create Connection ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json data = json.dumps({'app': 'jira'}).encode() req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Get Connection ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` **Response:** ```json { "connection": { "connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80", "status": "ACTIVE", "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z", "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z", "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...", "app": "jira", "metadata": {} } } ``` Open the returned `url` in a browser to complete OAuth authorization. ### Delete Connection ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Specifying Connection If you have multiple Jira connections, specify which one to use with the `Maton-Connection` header: ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/project') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection. ## API Reference ### Projects #### List Projects ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/project ``` #### Get Project ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/project/{projectKeyOrId} ``` ### Issues #### Search Issues (JQL) ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/search/jql?jql=project%3DKEY%20order%20by%20created%20DESC&maxResults=20&fields=summary,status,assignee ``` #### Get Issue ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey} ``` #### Create Issue ```bash POST /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue Content-Type: application/json { "fields": { "project": {"key": "PROJ"}, "summary": "Issue summary", "issuetype": {"name": "Task"} } } ``` #### Update Issue ```bash PUT /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey} Content-Type: application/json { "fields": { "summary": "Updated summary" } } ``` #### Delete Issue ```bash DELETE /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey} ``` #### Assign Issue ```bash PUT /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/assignee Content-Type: application/json { "accountId": "712020:5aff718e-6fe0-4548-82f4-f44ec481e5e7" } ``` ### Transitions #### Get Transitions ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/transitions ``` #### Transition Issue (change status) ```bash POST /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/transitions Content-Type: application/json { "transition": {"id": "31"} } ``` ### Comments #### Get Comments ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/comment ``` #### Add Comment ```bash POST /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/comment Content-Type: application/json { "body": { "type": "doc", "version": 1, "content": [{"type": "paragraph", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Comment text"}]}] } } ``` ### Users #### Get Current User ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/myself ``` #### Search Users ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/user/search?query=john ``` ### Metadata #### List Issue Types ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/issuetype ``` #### List Priorities ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/priority ``` #### List Statuses ```bash GET /jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/status ``` ## Code Examples ### JavaScript ```javascript // Get cloud ID first const resources = await fetch( 'https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/oauth/token/accessible-resources', { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}` } } ).then(r => r.json()); const cloudId = resources[0].id; // Search issues const issues = await fetch( `https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/ex/jira/${cloudId}/rest/api/3/search/jql?jql=project=KEY`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}` } } ).then(r => r.json()); ``` ### Python ```python import os import requests headers = {'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'} # Get cloud ID resources = requests.get( 'https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/oauth/token/accessible-resources', headers=headers ).json() cloud_id = resources[0]['id'] # Search issues issues = requests.get( f'https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/ex/jira/{cloud_id}/rest/api/3/search/jql', headers=headers, params={'jql': 'project=KEY', 'maxResults': 10} ).json() ``` ## Notes - Always fetch cloud ID first using `/oauth/token/accessible-resources` - JQL queries must be bounded (e.g., `project=KEY`) - Use URL encoding for JQL query parameters - Update, Delete, Transition return HTTP 204 on success - Agile API requires additional OAuth scopes. If you receive a scope error, contact Maton support at support@maton.ai with the specific operations/APIs you need and your use-case - IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use `curl -g` when URLs contain brackets (`fields[]`, `sort[]`, `records[]`) to disable glob parsing - IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to `jq` or other commands, environment variables like `$MATON_API_KEY` may not expand correctly in some shell environments. You may get "Invalid API key" errors when piping. ## Error Handling | Status | Meaning | |--------|---------| | 400 | Missing Jira connection or invalid JQL | | 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key | | 429 | Rate limited (10 req/sec per account) | | 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from Jira API | ### Troubleshooting: API Key Issues 1. Check that the `MATON_API_KEY` environment variable is set: ```bash echo $MATON_API_KEY ``` 2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections: ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name 1. Ensure your URL path starts with `jira`. For example: - Correct: `https://gateway.maton.ai/jira/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/project` - Incorrect: `https://gateway.maton.ai/ex/jira/{cloudId}/rest/api/3/project` ## Resources - [Jira API Introduction](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/intro/) - [Search Issues (JQL)](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-search/#api-rest-api-3-search-jql-get) - [Get Issue](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-get) - [Create Issue](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-post) - [Transition Issue](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-transitions-post) - [JQL Reference](https://support.atlassian.com/jira-service-management-cloud/docs/use-advanced-search-with-jira-query-language-jql/) - [Maton Community](https://discord.com/invite/dBfFAcefs2) - [Maton Support](mailto:support@maton.ai)
