Have a look at the documentation. http://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/
A REST api usually accepts HTTP request with data and sends something back. And there are plenty of REST clients written in PHP, so you won't need to do it again. Just have a look at packagist.org and search for "rest" to find about 14 pages worth of related stuff, with "Guzzle" being the most used: https://packagist.org/packages/guzzle/guzzle
