Create story with existing fix version using JIRA rest API

[Leslie Barrett]

We are trying to create a story issue type using the JIRA rest API.

Below is the sample request REQUEST: curl D -X POST -u ${bamboo.jiraUser}:${bamboo.jiraPassword} -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{ "fields": { "project": { "key": "ZEM" }, "summary": "${bamboo.planName} - ${bamboo.buildNumber}", "description": "Fortify Scan Successful. Please review the ticket:\n${bamboo.resultsUrl}", "issuetype": { "name": "Story" }, "customfield_11001": { "value": "No" }, "customfield_10814": {"value": "Risk / Security"}, "fixVersions": [\{ "name": "ZEM FE $\{bamboo.ios.version}"}], "assignee":{"name":"weberj"} }}' https://jira.ews.int/rest/api/2/issue/

But when we send the request with "fixVersion" data, JIRA is unable to create the issue and it is failing with below error.

RESPONSE: {"errorMessages":[],"errors":{"fixVersions":"Field 'fixVersions' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown."}}

We tried following the information noted in this link, but continue to be unsuccessful: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Answers-Developer-Questions/What-is-the-REST-API-call-for-adding-a-fix-version-to-a-Jira/qaq-p/509437

Hello,

Kindly make sure that the fixVersions field is defined on the create screen for the Story issue type in the ZEM project.
