Jira init fails at `configuring metadata` step

[adezxc]

jira init fails when running /rest/api/2/issue/createmeta endpoint. I am not sure if it's my work instance's specifics, but I get a 404 at that step after choosing a board (even if I choose None). I think this is related due to the createmeta endpoint getting deprecated (https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/changelog/#CHANGE-1304) If you could confirm this, I'd be happy to try and undertake the task of migrating to /rest/api/2/issue/createmeta/{projectIdOrKey}/issuetypes and /rest/api/2/issue/createmeta/{projectIdOrKey}/issuetypes/{issueTypeId}

Please provide following details

1. JiraCLI Version:

   (Version="v1.5.1", GitCommit="", CommitDate="", GoVersion="go1.22.3", Compiler="gc", Platform="linux/amd64")
   

2. Are you using Jira cloud or on-premise jira server? Jira cloud enterprise instance
3. What operating system are you using? Also mention version.

   Debian Linux on WSL2

This was fixed with https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli/pull/447 🤔.

Are you sure you are on a cloud instance?

I experience the same behavior with Go: 1.23.0 Jira cloud: v9.4.23 Jira cli: 1.5.1

Interestingly, I don't get a 404 when I try to run it with curl: curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $JIRA_API_TOKEN" "https://jira.mycompany.com/rest/api/2/issue/createmeta?projectKeys=MYPROJ&expand=projects.issuetypes.fields" {"errorMessages":["Issue Does Not Exist"],"errors":{}}%

Still experiencing the following:

w.r.t @johnnylambada 's observation above - I think that IS evidence of the 404 error being discussed.. I see similar behavior but when I pass -I to curl - you can see its a 404 response code plainly (the body of the response just happens to return JSON as described above)

$ curl -I -H "Authorization: Bearer $JIRA_API_TOKEN" "https://issues.redhat.com/rest/api/2/issue/createmeta?projectKeys=RHOAIENG&expand=projects.issuetypes.fields"
