ISSUE: 

Currently the REST API Manual is missing the complete list of projectTemplateKeys and projectTypeKeys, which are necessary in order to create all the possible project types in Jira, they fall in to three main categories:

ソフトウェア

Core

Service Management

Below you will find a complete list of these and examples of each. 

List of  projectTypeKey and corresponding projectTemplateKey(s). 

Jira SOFTWARE Projects:

projectTypeKey = software

projectTemplateKey(s): 

Scrum: "com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira:gh-scrum-template"
Kanban: "com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira:gh-kanban-template"
Basic: "com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira:basic-software-development-template"

Example of API call to create a software project:

curl -X POST \
  http://<yourJiraurl>/rest/api/2/project \
  -H 'Authorization: Basic cm9ubmllOlRhdGVyYnVnMTIj' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
  -d '{
 "key": "SOF",
 "name": "Software Sample",
 "projectTypeKey": "software",
 "projectTemplateKey": "com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira:gh-scrum-template",
 "description": "Example Project description",
 "lead": "ronnie",
 "assigneeType": "PROJECT_LEAD",
 "avatarId": 10200
 }'

 As per the REST API documentation if " issueSecurityScheme ": , " permissionScheme ": or   " notificationScheme ": are not specified,  the defaults will be utilized. 

In order to create a Kanban  or basic  type software project we'd just change the "projectTemplateKey" to the appropriate type as listed above.

Jira  CORE or BUSINESS type Projects:

projectTypeKey = business

projectTemplateKey(s): 

Project Management: "com.atlassian.jira-core-project-templates:jira-core-project-management"
Task Management: "com.atlassian.jira-core-project-templates:jira-core-task-management"
Process Management: "com.atlassian.jira-core-project-templates:jira-core-process-management"

Example of API call to create a core/business project:

curl -X POST \
  http://<yourJiraurl>/rest/api/2/project \
  -H 'Authorization: Basic cm9ubmllOlRhdGVyYnVnMTIj' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
  -d '{
 "key": "BUS",
 "name": "Business Sample",
 "projectTypeKey": "business",
 "projectTemplateKey": "com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira:gh-scrum-template",
 "description": "Example Project description",
 "lead": "ronnie",
 "assigneeType": "PROJECT_LEAD",
 "avatarId": 10200
 }'

Jira  Service Management type Projects:

projectTypeKey = service_desk

projectTemplateKey(s): 

Basic: "com.atlassian.servicedesk:basic-service-desk-project"
IT Service Management: "com.atlassian.servicedesk:itil-v2-service-desk-project"
Customer Service: "com.atlassian.servicedesk:customer-service-desk-project"

Example of API call to create a service management project:

curl -X POST \
  http://<yourJiraurl>/rest/api/2/project \
  -H 'Authorization: Basic cm9ubmllOlRhdGVyYnVnMTIj' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
  -d '{
 "key": "JSD",
 "name": "JSD Sample",
 "projectTypeKey": "service_desk",
 "projectTemplateKey": "com.atlassian.servicedesk:itil-v2-service-desk-project",
 "description": "Example Project description",
 "lead": "ronnie",
 "assigneeType": "PROJECT_LEAD",
 "avatarId": 10200
 }'
