How get baseurl in rovo agent forge app

Forge
, , , ,
1

Hi everyone,

I’m building a Forge Rovo agent that fetches filters and issues. When I look at the self field in the API response, I always get a link like this:

https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/<cloudId>/rest/api/3/...

But what I actually want is the Jira site base URL, for example:

https://my-site.atlassian.net

so that I can create user-facing links (like filter links or issue links).

Is there a recommended way to get the Jira base URL inside a Forge Rovo agent action?
Should I be using context.siteUrl from the payload, or is there another approach?

Thanks!

I am just giving my observation here, why don’t you directly use requestJira function to get the things you are trying to get

let response = await asUser().requestJira(route`rest/api/3/issue/{issueKey}`)

Did you try using such syntax to get response from your desired instance?

Yes I am doing this : const res = await api.asUser().requestJira(route`/rest/api/3/search?jql=assignee=currentUser() ORDER BY created DESC&maxResults=20`,

{ headers: { Accept: ‘application/json’ } } but not getting the correct url in self , I am getting : expand: ‘description,owner,jql,viewUrl,searchUrl,favourite,favouritedCount,sharePermissions,editPermissions,isWritable,approximateLastUsed,subscriptions’,
self: ‘https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/ec2761e9-b0d4-41a2-968c-b6f2586ab425/rest/api/3/filter/10066’,
id: ‘10066’,
name: ‘test2’
} but my instance is different from this .

Do you mean you want to make a request from one instance to another ?

5

no, I am making request from my instance and I am getting the response but in response I am getting different . Above I am getting self: ‘https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/ec2761e9-b0d4-41a2-968c-b6f2586ab425/rest/api/3/filter/10066’, in json but (https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/ec2761e9-b0d4-41a2-968c-b6f2586ab425/) is not my instance . I am creating an forge app using rovo agent module and getting this issue . Previously I have created many apps but not facing this type issue . I think now you are able to understand my query .

Using this request:

GET /rest/api/3/serverInfo

You will receive a payload with a context that will contain a cloudId

the object you pasted is just the Fetch API Response

Can you do this: await res.json() to read the full body.
