1503182 - Fix data type of native bug count API return value

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: API, defect)

Description

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

Hi!

With BzAPI, I can fetch counts of bugs using queries like:
ttps://bugzilla.mozilla.org/bzapi/count?keywords=intermittent-failure&chfieldfr om=-1y

However there doesn't appear to be a REST API equivalent, since this doesn't work:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/rest/count?keywords=intermittent-failure&chfieldfrom=-1y

...and I can't find an alternative endpoint documented on:
https://bugzilla.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/core/v1/bug.html

Or if this feature already exists, could it be added to the RTD docs?

Many thanks :-)

Here we go :-)

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/rest/bug?keywords=intermittent-failure&chfieldfrom=-1y&count_only=true

It has to be documented, and the value should be a number instead of a string.

Ah awesome thank you :-)

The `count_only` param was added in Bug 920060 and documented in Bug 1250911, but only in the BMO docs. The upstream docs will be updated once Bugzilla 6 is shipped, I guess. I’ll fix the data type only.

Ah ok. The reason I ended up on the `bugzilla.readthedocs.io` docs was that googling "bugzilla mozilla api docs" gave the top result of:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:REST_API

...which links to:
