Summary

The project lost its issuetypescheme, and now it appears as broken ${issueTypeScheme.name} issuetype in UI:

Environment

Jira Cloud

Diagnosis

JIRA's Default Issue Type Scheme has somehow become corrupted in the database causing problems with new issue creation, and accessing the existing issues in the affected project.

The root cause for this is still unknown (but we observed such behavior post migrations/recovering projects from the archive where the associated issuetypescheme doesn't exist).

Solution

Through API call, you can apply the primary fix:
 

HTTP Method: GET
API Call:  https://<site name>.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issuetypescheme/project?projectId=<projectId>
It will show the "Default Issue Type Scheme" in the result

Example:
{
    "maxResults": 50,
    "startAt": 0,
    "total": 1,
    "isLast": true,
    "values": [
        {
            "issueTypeScheme": {
                "id": "10000",
                "name": "Default Issue Type Scheme",
                "description": "Default issue type scheme is the list of global issue types. All newly created issue types will automatically be added to this scheme.",
                "isDefault": true
            },
            "projectIds": [
                "10099"
            ]
        }
    ]
}


  • Create a copy of "Default Issue Type Scheme"
  • Get the Id of the new IssuetypeScheme 
  • Use the below API call to associate the new IssuetypeScheme with the project.


HTTP Method: PUT
API Call:  https://<site name>.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issuetypescheme/project'
Body: 
{
  "issueTypeSchemeId": "10001",
  "projectId": "10099"
}

* Replace 10001 with the required IssuetypeSchemeID, and 10099 with the correct projectID.
