Issues API

Every API call to issues must be authenticated.

If a user is not a member of a project and the project is private, a GET request on that project will result to a 404 status code.

Issues pagination

By default, GET requests return 20 results at a time because the API results are paginated.

List issues

Get all issues the authenticated user has access to. By default it returns only issues created by the current user. To get all issues, use parameter scope=all.
