Summary
When trying to execute the below URL for details it didn't work (blank page returned)
http://<jira base URL>/rest/dev-status/1.0/issue/detail?issueId=<issue-id>&applicationType=bitbucket&dataType=repository
However, when using the summary api it returns the results:
https://<jira base URL>/rest/dev-status/1.0/issue/summary?issueId=<issue-id>&applicationType=bitbucket&dataType=repository
Environment
8.13.4
.
Cause
The endpoint contains the bitbucket as the applicationType entry. Jira is still using stash (older name of Bitbucket) as the applicationType entry.
Solution
To get development tool related information from Jira, use the following 2 endpoints:
Repository data
https://<jira base URL>/rest/dev-status/1.0/issue/detail?issueId=<issue-id>&applicationType=stash&dataType=repository
Branch/Pull Request
https://<jira base URL>/rest/dev-status/1.0/issue/detail?issueId=<issue-id>&applicationType=stash&dataType=pullrequest
