How can i provide JIRA like JQL autocomplete feature?

[dhara.ghodasara]

Hi - In my app, at few places, we ask our user to enter JQL to filter issues.

Right now issue is, for end user, its very difficult to write JQL syntax without having autocomplete feature.

Does any one know how to provide JQL autocomplete functionality within Server and Cloud app?

Hi @dhara.ghodasara,

There are two REST API endpoints provided to get JQL autocomplete data:

• https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/#api-api-2-jql-autocompletedata-get
• https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/#api-api-2-jql-autocompletedata-suggestions-get

Regards,
Dave

Thanks @dmeyer. I checked this API before. But its not easy to implement auto-suggestion like JIRA’s issue search page.

Do you have any examples which i can refer to use this API?
