In-depth guide

Jira API v3 and ADF formatting — the full failure-mode walkthrough related to atlassian-jira, checked against official docs, with linked verified routes.

Steps

Auth: email + API token (basic) for cloud, or OAuth 2.0 (3LO)
GET /rest/api/3/issue/createmeta?projectKeys=X&expand=projects.issuetypes.fields to discover required fields
POST /rest/api/3/issue with fields.project.key, issuetype, summary; description must be ADF (Atlassian Document Format) JSON
Transition separately: POST /issue/{key}/transitions (status can't be set at create)

Known gotchas

Description/comments are ADF JSON in v3, not plain text or wiki markup — plain strings 400
You cannot set status directly — only via transitions, and transition ids vary per workflow
Custom fields are customfield_10xxx ids that differ between sites; resolve via createmeta
