Hi and Weclome, 

in Jira cloud you have an rate limiting on api calls . 

Rate limiting 

You can setup your scriptrunner script to handle the rate limiting. 

The response code indicates that too many requests were sent in a short amount of time. 

• Check if the HTTP response status code is 429 
• Look for the following headers in the response: 
  • X-RateLimit-Limit: The maximum number of requests allowed 
  • X-RateLimit-Remaining: The number of requests remaining 
  • X-RateLimit-Interval-Seconds: The time interval between batches of new requests 
  • X-RateLimit-FillRate: The number of requests in each batch 
  • Retry-After: The number of seconds to wait before retrying the request 
  • X-RateLimit-Reset: The date and time when the request can be retried 
  • X-RateLimit-NearLimit: Indicates that less than 20% of the request budget remain
    
    With that information you can handle proper the rate limits

Why do you need to update the field in every issue in every project?
