Using Jira’s webservice, I encounter an error indicating that the ‘fetchIssuesByJql’ operation is unavailable in version 4.01. How can I obtain project issues directly without creating filters?
I encountered a similar problem with Jira 4.01 where the expected JQL-based operation wasn’t exposed in the web services. From my experience, the issue seems to be that the SOAP API had limited capabilities in that release. I ended up resorting to constructing the JQL query in client-side code and then mapping it through existing operations that accept filters or working with a workaround by pushing custom plugin updates. Upgrading to a slightly newer version might be a more straightforward option if creating filters isn’t ideal in your workflow.
