JIRA Search Ticket Search Workflow

[StudSeth]

After trying a few alternatives and not getting exactly what I wanted, I built my own workflow for searching JIRA tickets if you host your own JIRA Server (so not really intended for JIRA Cloud). 

 

I attempted to sign up for packal, but it isn't working very well so I used the contact form to submit my information but wanted to share my workflow here since I was excited that I finally finished it! Here is my promo snippet:

Appears you need to install jq, such as "brew install jq".

I am finding I can't use any of these Jira workflows as my enterprised managed Jira is too restrictive and they don't allow users to have API tokens, everything has to be done through OAUTH.  @StudSeth have you had to encounter using OAUTH for this?

I believe this depends on your organization's administrative settings. If they enable API keys per user, you should be able to use that. In my case, I was actually able to use the username:password and I didn't even need an API key. Oauth, or Oauth2 is quite a bit more complicated to implement, not sure that would stack well on my mostly BASH scripts I setup here.

Yes, sorry about that. It was noted on the Github repo as well that I forgot to list the dependency. You need to have JQ installed because its how I transform the JSON into the proper format for Alfred to reach and display it.
