REST API
This section provides information on how to use the REST API with TestFLO elements.
You can use the Jira REST API to perform such operations as:
- Create Test Case Templates and Test Plans
- Change status of Test Case and Test Plans
- Update fields on your TC, TP
- Attach test result to TC
- Others
We have extended REST API with following methods:
Change Steps status
This endpoint allows you to change the status of the step. Parameters should be passed in a JSON file.
Method: PUT
URL: $jira_context/rest/tms/1.0/steps/status
Parameters:
- issueId (ID issue number in which the status in the Steps has to be changed)
- rowIndex (number of row index in Steps without counting groups, starting from 0)
- status (name of status configured in Steps status in project)
See the sample file with a structure - change_steps_status.json
Change Steps statuses
This endpoint allows you to change the statuses of steps. Parameters should be passed in a JSON file.
Method: PUT
URL: $jira_context/rest/tms/1.0/steps/statuses
Parameters:
- issueId (ID issue number in which the status in the Steps has to be changed)
- rows - list of rows to update, each object must contain: * rowIndex (number of row index in Steps without counting groups, starting from 0) * status (name of status configured in Steps status in project)
See the sample file with a structure - change_steps_statuses.json
Create TC with Steps
This endpoint allows you to create Test Case with Steps. Parameters should be passed in a JSON file.
Method: POST
URL: $jira_context/rest/api/2/issue
Parameters:
-
key (project)
-
parent (key of parent issue)
-
issuetype (Test Case)
-
customfield_ID (ID number of TC Template field, issuekey of TCT)
-
customfield_ID (ID number of Steps field)
-
isGroup (value: true or false)
- If the parameter is true, it is a group.
- If the parameter is false, then this is a step.
-
cells
- If the isGroup parameter is set to true then fill in the name of the group. This parameter accepts only one cell.
- If the isGroup parameter is set to false then fill the data for the row from the Steps field. The number of columns in the file has to be the same as Steps columns configuration from the project.
See the sample file with a structure (configuration of three columns in Steps) - tc_create_with_steps.json
Create TCT with Steps
This endpoint allows you to create Test Case Templates with Steps. Parameters should be passed in a JSON file.
Method: POST
URL: $jira_context/rest/api/2/issue
Parameters:
-
key (project)
-
issuetype (Test Case Template)
-
customfield_ID (ID number of Steps field)
-
isGroup (value: true or false)
- If the parameter is true, it is a group.
- If the parameter is false, then this is a step.
-
cells
- If the isGroup parameter is set to true then fill in the name of the group. This parameter accepts only one cell.
- If the isGroup parameter is set to false then fill the data for the row from the Steps field. The number of columns in the file has to be the same as Steps columns configuration from the project.
See the sample file with a structure (configuration of three columns in Steps) - tct_create_with_steps.json
Create TCT with Preconditions
This endpoint allows you to create Test Case Templates with Preconditions. Parameters should be passed in a JSON file.
Method: POST
URL: $jira_context/rest/api/2/issue
Parameters:
- key (project)
- issuetype (ID of Test Case Template issue type)
- customfield_ID (ID number of Preconditions field)
See the sample file with a structure - tct_create_with_preconditions.json
Update Steps at issue
This endpoint allows you to update Steps at issue. Parameters should be passed in a JSON file.
Method: PUT
URL: $jira_context/rest/api/2/issue/{ISSUE-KEY}
Parameters:
-
customfield_ID (ID number of Steps field)
-
isGroup (value: true or false)
- If the parameter is true, it is a group.
- If the parameter is false, then this is a step.
-
cells
- If the isGroup parameter is set to true then fill in the name of the group. This parameter accepts only one cell.
- If the isGroup parameter is set to false then fill the data for the row from the Steps field. The number of columns in the file has to be the same as Steps columns configuration from the project.

Update Preconditions at issue
This endpoint allows you to update Preconditions at issue. Parameters should be passed in a JSON file.
Method: PUT
URL: $jira_context/rest/api/2/issue/{ISSUE-KEY}
Parameters:

Copy Test Plan
This endpoint allows you to use the Copy Test Plan operation. Parameters should be passed in a JSON file.
Method: POST
URL: $jira_context/rest/tms/1.0/testplan/copy
Parameters:
-
testPlanKey - issue key of the source test plan.
-
projects (optional) - list of projects, in which test plan copies will be created, if skipped default project comes from copied test plan.
-
copyStrategy (optional) - method of creating test cases on test plan copies. Valid values:
* **BY_TEST_CASE_TEMPLATES** (default) - test cases will be created with data from their templates. * **BY_TEST_CASES** - test cases will be created with data from test cases from source test plan.
-
issueIds (optional) - list of test cases/test case templates ids to copy, if not provided then all issues are copied.
-
async (optional) - should request be executed asynchronously, default is false. If true then result will not contain created test cases.
See the sample file with a structure - copy_tp.json
Get Test Case ids on Test Plan

Parameters
- testPlanKeys list of Test Plan keys to which Test Case Template will be added
- testCaseTemplateKeys list of Test Case Templates that will be added to Test Plan
- async (value: true/false):
- if the parameter is true then the response won’t contain created Test Case issue keys and there will be no error message when the user doesn’t have Create Issues permission (the Test Cases won’t be created). The process of creating Test Cases will be executed asynchronously.
- if the parameter is false then the response will contain created Test Case issue keys and if the user doesn’t have Create Issues permission there will appear an error message.
