# Get Transitions

Returns either all transitions or a transition that can be performed by the user on an issue, based on the issue's status.

Note, if a request is made for a transition that does not exist or cannot be performed on the issue, given its status, the response will return any empty transitions list.

This operation can be accessed anonymously.

**Permissions required: A list or transition is returned only when the user has:**

* *Browse projects* [project permission](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/yodKLg) for the project that the issue is in.
* If [issue-level security](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/J4lKLg) is configured, issue-level security permission to view the issue.

However, if the user does not have the *Transition issues* [ project permission](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/yodKLg) the response will not list any transitions.
