Issues API
Every API call to issues must be authenticated.
If a user is not a member of a project and the project is private, a GET
request on that project will result to a 404
status code.
Issues pagination
By default, GET
requests return 20 results at a time because the API results
are paginated.
Read more on pagination.
List issues
Get all issues the authenticated user has access to. By default it
returns only issues created by the current user. To get all issues,
use parameter scope=all
