If you’re looking to programmatically create UI’s/forms to POST Ticket, our /meta endpoint does the job! The /meta endpoint allows you to programmatically pull required fields & available enum options, based on the linked account & integration. We do all the work for you so that you don’t have to.

Below are some tips for using /meta with some of the Ticketing integrations.

/meta for POST Ticket in Jira

  1. Call /meta to know what the required fields are. For Jira, it’s name, collection, and ticket_type.

  2. Once your customer has selected a collection, call /meta again with “collection_id” query param. This retrieves the linked account’s available assignees & ticket types for that project, so that you can present them on your form.

  3. Once your customer has selected the rest of the available fields, you can POST/ Ticket!
