Hi Everyone,

We’re glad to announce that we’ve recently published new REST APIs for issue priorities management. With already existing REST APIs ([Create priority](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-priorities/#api-rest-api-3-priority-post), [Update priority](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-priorities/#api-rest-api-3-priority-id-put), [Search priorities](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-priorities/#api-rest-api-3-priority-search-get)) we support the full set of REST APIs to Create/Read/Update/Delete issue resolutions in Jira Cloud. New APIs are specifically:

- [Set default priority](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-priorities/#api-rest-api-3-priority-default-put)
- [Move priorities](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-priorities/#api-rest-api-3-priority-move-put)
- [Delete priority](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-priorities/#api-rest-api-3-priority-id-delete)

The REST API [Get priorities](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-priorities/#api-rest-api-3-priority-get) is **deprecated**. The deprecated API can be replaced with [Search priorities](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-priorities/#api-rest-api-3-priority-search-get)

Any deprecated REST API in the cloud environment MUST be available in its original form for at least 6 months, for more details see the [Atlassian REST API policy](https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/marketplace/atlassian-rest-api-policy/)

If you have any feedback or question for us, please leave us a comment below.

Cheers,  
Jira Cloud Ecosystem team
