I'm looking to set up smart commits in JIRA, but my developers want to know all the options for their transitions. In order to help them, I'd like to print a cheat-sheet of all transition names (I trust they are smart enough to figure out what does what from there).

But when I look through the REST API documentation, I can only find a way to get the list of transitions for a particular issue (presumably via its status). Is there a way to get the list of all transitions that any ticket can take at any point in its workflow?

You can list the transitions of a given ticket via this endpoint:

/rest/api/2/issue/${issueIdOrKey}/transitions

For a more in depth explanation take a look here: Does the JIRA REST API require submitting a transition ID when transitioning an issue?
