async function execute(input: Parameters<AtlassianIntegration["projectTypes"]["getProjectTypeByKey"]>[0]) {
  const app = new App({ apiKey: process.env.ALTER_API_KEY! });
  try {
    const provider = new AtlassianIntegration(app, { grantId: process.env.PROVIDER_GRANT_ID! });
    const call = await provider.projectTypes.getProjectTypeByKey(input);
    const result = await call.wait();
    return result.bodyJson();
  } finally {
    await app.close();
  }
}

Policy, approvals and errors

SDK function policy ID: atlassian.getprojecttypebykey. Catalog operation: getprojecttypebykey. Rules can name either ID; function rules distinguish managed calls and conservatively cover raw calls sharing the route. Existing grant permissions and policy rules apply. wait() returns an immediate result or waits for a required approval; it never approves the request itself. Persist the approval ID to resume after a restart.

Provider errors retain their response; JSON decoding raises ProviderAPIError for provider failures. ManagedOperationError identifies contract/input/retention errors. See error handling and provider-specific behavior. Sensitive input may be refused before approval storage. A decoding error never resubmits a write.

Required provider scopes: ["read:jira-work"]
