I'm trying to add a Test Execution to a Test Plan using Xray Rest API & Axios. I have already created an API key and authenticated successfully like so:
const axios = require('axios');
const { argv } = require('yargs');
const { clientId, clientSecret } = argv;
const headers = {
Accept: 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
};
const authenticateXray = async () => {
await axios({
method: 'post',
url: `
headers,
data: {
client_id: clientId, // my created client id goes here
client_secret: clientSecret, // my created client secret goes here
},
})
.then(res => console.log(`Xray authentication response status was: ${res.status}`)) // 200!
.catch(e => {
throw new Error(e.response.data.error);
});
};
Then, I made a call & passed some param values gathered before when creating a Test Plan & Test Execution like so:
await axios({
method: 'posts',
url: `
data: {
0: createdTestExecIssue.data.id,
},
});
However, I get this error: (node:46352) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Request failed with status code 400. I was able to link a Test Execution to the Test Plan using another endpoint from Jira Rest API, but I'm looking to add it instead, check the screenshot below for reference.

I was able to solve this issue by passing the data differently like so:
await axios({
...
...
data: [`${testExecutionId}`],
});
& passing the X-acpt key/value pair in the Request Header like so:
'X-acpt': `encodedCharaterGoesHere-YouNeedToretrievUsingNetworkTabInChrome`,
My request ended up like so:
await axios({
method: 'post',
url: `
headers: {
Accept: 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'X-acpt': `encodedCharaterGoesHere-YouNeedToretrievUsingNetworkTabInChrome`,
'X-Powered-By': 'Express',
},
data: [`${testExecutionId}`],
});
You can do this with the graphQL api, just replace the YourTestPlanID and yourTestExecutionId.
const response = await axios({
method: 'post',
url: '
data: {
query:
`mutation {
addTestExecutionsToTestPlan(
issueId: "YourTestPlanID",
testExecIssueIds: ["yourTestExecutionId"]) {
addedTestExecutions
warning
}
}`
},
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer TOKEN obtained using the authentication api`,
'Content-Type': 'application/json' }
});
