Automation for Jira includes a number of configuration properties that let you check or change the default values related to various actions, conditions, and other items.

You need to be a Jira administrator to view or change the configuration properties.

Checking the current value

To check the property’s current value:

curl -u <user>:<password>  http://<JIRA_BASE_URL>/rest/cb-automation/1/configuration/property/<PROPERTY_KEY>

Changing the value

To change the value:

curl -u <user>:<password> -X PUT -H 'Content-type: application/json'  --data '{"key":"<PROPERTY_KEY>","value":"<VALUE>"}' http://<JIRA_BASE_URL>/rest/cb-automation/1/configuration/property/

For example:

curl -u admin:admin -X PUT -H 'Content-type: application/json'  --data '{"key":"outgoing.webhook.timeout.ms","value":"50000"}' http://jira.atlassian.com:8080/jira/rest/cb-automation/1/configuration/property/

For Jira running on Windows server, you can use Invoke-webrequest. The script below was tested on Windows Server 2016:

$user = 'YOUR_USER_ADMIN'
$pass = 'PASSWORD'
 
$pair = "$($user):$($pass)"
 
$encodedCreds = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes($pair))
 
$basicAuthValue = "Basic $encodedCreds"
 
$Headers = @{
    Authorization = $basicAuthValue
}
 
$Uri = 'http://YOURJIRABASEURL/rest/cb-automation/1/configuration/property/bulk'
$Form = @{
    "ms.teams.notification.action.url.prefix"="https://"
}
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $Uri -Method Put -Body ($Form|ConvertTo-Json) -ContentType "application/json" -Headers $Headers
