Hello. I am making a dashboard based on a Structure for my company. My intention if to fetch all the data with the API from Power Query. I could retieve all the Forest thanks to the Forest API, and got results like 1091611:1:8482918:4. According to the documentation, the first and third blocks can refer an issue, but if I try to extract (with rest/3.0/issue/8482588 in this case), I receive what it seems to be a generic html response. I know that this could be very easy for many of you, that’s why I am here. I am learning with the API, but I got stuck here. Any help, please? ---

Welcome to the Atlassian developer community @Another_User, I don’t know where you got that path from. The Jira platform REST API docs have an endpoint for [get issue](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-get) using `GET /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}`. If you don’t use the path correctly, you will get “a generic HTML response” with a 404 status. If you have the path right, but provide a wrong `issueIdOrKey`, you will still get a 404 status, but the response is JSON.
