Jira Webservice Issue: 'getIssuesFromJqlSearch' Operation Not Found in Version 4.01

I’m encountering an issue with the Jira Webservice while attempting to use the function ‘getIssuesFromJqlSearch’ to execute a specific JQL query. However, I receive an error stating, “No such operation ‘getIssuesFromJqlSearch’”. Is it possible that this functionality has not been implemented in Jira version 4.01?

Additionally, I am looking for a way to retrieve all issues for a particular project without needing to create filters first, since there is no direct method like ‘getIssuesFromProject’.

If the JQL method cannot be resolved, I’m considering using the RSS XML View with a query URL, such as SearchRequest.xml?jqlQuery=project+%3D+Testproject&tempMax=1000, although it’s not my preferred solution.

Hey! It seems like ‘getIssuesFromJqlSearch’ came in later versions. For Jira 4.01, you could try direct database access to fetch issues if u r comfortable with queries. Otherwise, explore the REST API if you haven’t yet, sometimes it offers alternatives the older SOAP services couldn’t.

@FlyingStar, another way you could try is scripting with groovy if your jira instance supports it. It might allow you to execute your JQL in a roundabout way. Or try looking into third-party plugins, they often have features to overcome such limtations in older jira versions.

Indeed, the ‘getIssuesFromJqlSearch’ function is not available in Jira version 4.01 as this feature was introduced in later updates. An option you could explore is using Jira’s built-in filters that allow exporting issues in CSV format, which can then be used for analysis or further processing. Although creating filters might not be your desired approach, it definitely circumvents the limitations of older Jira functionalities and helps in managing issue retrieval efficiently.
