Welcome to the Atlassian developer community @sj1,

Maybe you could have a look at our community guidelines on how to ask a good question:

Hi, I am new to jira . I am trying to create project in jira using REST API.
I authenticated through basic auth.

This is my request body

{
  "leadAccountId":"62de2bd80b4bf7ad924a926a",
  "url": "http://atlassian.com",
  "avatarId": 10200,
  "issueSecurityScheme": 10001,
  "projectTemplateKey": "com.atlassian.jira-core-project-templates:jira-core-simplified-process-control",
  "name": "Example",
  "permissionScheme": 10011,
  "assigneeType":"PROJECT_LEAD",
  "projectTypeKey": "business",
  "key": "EX",
  "categoryId": 10120  
}

I got response as

{
    "errorMessages": [
        "Internal server error"
    ],
    "errors": {}
}

Any help would be appreciated

@sj1,

You might want to start with a minimum request:

{
	"name": $UNIQUE_NAME,
	"key": $UNIQUE_KEY,
	"projectTypeKey": "business",
	"leadAccountId": $ACCOUNT_ID
}

From what I can tell, even bad values for those will return a meaningful error message.

Adding a bit more of your more elaborate request back, all of this works for me:

{
	"name": $UNIQUE_NAME,
	"key": $UNIQUE_KEY,
	"projectTypeKey": "business",
	"leadAccountId": $ACCOUNT_ID,
	"url": "http://atlassian.com",
	"assigneeType": "PROJECT_LEAD",
	"projectTemplateKey": "com.atlassian.jira-core-project-templates:jira-core-simplified-process-control",
	"avatarId": 10200
}

I can get the same errors you saw (Internal server error) when I provide invalid IDs for issueSecurityScheme or permissionScheme. I get a meaningful error message when I provide a wrong categoryId.

Thank you for your response. I created project .
