Missing Jira/Portfolio data from JSON/Rest API
I have a data connecter retrieving data from Jira/Portfolio through the Jira Rest API:
https://<JIRA_SERVER>/rest/api/2/search?jql=project%20in%20(GIV)%20and%20issuetype%20=%20Epic
I am specifically looking for the Parent Link field on the Epic that references the key to the parent Initiative (customfield_13703)
My problem lies in the discrepancy between the actual JSON contents and the Power BI interpretation of the JSON contents.
Attacued is a side-by-side comparison of the raw JSON data and the coresponding object in Power BI.
Everything lines up nicely with the exception of a few customfield values (see highlighted in attached image) that are presumably part of the Portfolio add-on. It seems to be selectively excluding the customfields in the 137xx range.
If I specifically add the missing fields in my field expansion, the resulting field value is null (for obvious reasons - it isn't there to retrieve...) Any suggestions on locating the missing information would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Anonymous,
Based on my research, there is a maxResults value limitation (100 rows) returned by JIRA REST API, please see: JIRA Cloud REST API /rest/api/latest/search?maxResults=1000 is returning only 100 results
Best regards,

v-yulgu-msft - This is a hosted server Jira instance. In addition, I have implemented a recursive/paged query that removes the result size limit. THe issue is that even for a single record, the JSON returned by the rest call executed from within Power BI does not contain the same fields that the same call through a web browser returns. My attached illustration identifies the difference in fields contained in the JSON structure.
v-yulgu-msft Is there any more to add based on my response to your suggestion?
