Is there a way to get all status types from the JIRA webservice, either through the api or through a JQL request? (The issue status is the field that is mapped to the swimlanes when the board is set up)
Whith JIRA REST API you can :
rest/api/2/status
or for each project :
rest/api/2/project/{projectIdOrKey}/statuses
see the online rest api browser : it's a wonderful tool :
https://jira.atlassian.com/plugins/servlet/restbrowser#/resource/api-2-status
For future reference, to see what's in a project's swimlanes for a JIRA agile board you make a request like this: https://jira.atlassian.com/rest/greenhopper/1.0/xboard/work/allData.json?rapidViewId=560 and it will return the relevant information.
Each board has a rapidViewId so you'll have to query for that yourself using a request like this: /rest/greenhopper/1.0/rapidview.
All this stuff can be found here: https://jira.atlassian.com/plugins/servlet/restbrowser#/resource/greenhopper-1-0-rapidview
This is for future reference so that people don't have to go through the same trouble I did when trying to figure this out. Hope it helps!
