JIRA Dispatches JSON Data to Azure Function but Returns an Empty Payload

Other Questions Jira

JIRA submits new issue data to an Azure Function, yet the JSON payload remains missing unlike expected responses. For instance:

def process_event(request):
    content = request.get_json()
    return 'Handled' if content else 'No Data'

hey, try adding request.get_json(force=True) so function might process your data correct. also check if headrs are set to application/json.

I encountered a similar problem where the payload appeared empty, and after some investigation, I discovered that the issue was partly due to the trigger binding configuration in the Azure Function. It turned out that the JSON payload was present, but the function was unable to parse it because of a mismatch in the content type expected by the function. I resolved the issue by ensuring that the request header was explicitly set to application/json and by logging the raw data to trace what was actually being received. Verifying the binding settings helped in pinpointing the source of the problem.

I encountered a similar glitch during a migration project last year. Initially, I assumed the empty payload was due to misconfigured headers, but after logging the raw request data I realized the issue was more nuanced. The data was being read twice, causing the first call to consume the content and leaving nothing for the second read. Adding proper logging helped me pinpoint the problem. Rewriting the function to manage the request stream safely, along with verifying header consistency, resolved the problem. It turned out to be a subtle bug in how the request body was being handled.

hey, maybe try logging request.data before calling get_json so you can see if the payload is actually coming thru. i had issues once where bindings consumed the data first. double check the config device may be misbehaving.
