Can I change the status via rest api ?

[Rajeev Jain]

I am using Transition property in my rest call, but it is not changing status in jira.

Thanks Rodrigo, 

I found solution we have to use different ApI call to make it successful.

First query issue transitions using key and find all possible status like given below

End Point : Your JIRA Site Link/rest/api/2/issue/Issue Key/transitions

Method : Get

this will return you all possible transition setup in your JIRA account.

Then use use 'POST' method to change the status like given below

End Point : Your JIRA Site Link/rest/api/2/issue/Issue Key/transitions

Method : POST

Body : 

{
"transition": {
"name": "Done"
}
}

Thanks
