title: Jira REST error "The value 'XXX' does not exist for the field 'project'."] while performing search with JQL
body: <p>I'm trying to call a Jira REST API from .Net (query issues in a project), but I get the above HTTP 400 error.</p>
  
  <p>This is how I make the call:</p>
  
  <pre><code>using System.Net;
  var jiraRequest = HttpWebRequest.CreateHttp("https://example.com/rest/api/latest/search?jql=project=projectname");
  jiraRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(username, password);
  var response = (HttpWebResponse)jiraRequest.GetResponse();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As I was debugging it, a noticed that requesting the same URL from Chrome works, but from IE it doesn't.
  Any ideas?</p>
