Not able to transition the issue status

[Deleted user]

I have used this api

"https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-put"

To transition the issue status from "To Do" to "Done" But not happening.

payload = json.dumps({
    "transition": {
        "id": "3"
    },
    "update": {
        "customfield_10028": [
            {
                "set": 5
            }
        ]
    }
})

Above is my payload body for "PUT" request.

I want to transition the issue using this API only. I don't want to do by other method.

What to do?

Hi @[deleted] 

Please check "Transition Issue" rest operation: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-transitions-post

You should use "POST" for this.

Thanks @Tansu Akdeniz 

But I have clearly mentioned that I want to do this operation using 

"https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-put"

this api only.

I haven't tried performing transition with edit issue api. Maybe you can only pass transition id and remove cf in JSON to go step by step.

Also, what is the cf type and request response?

Thanks @Tansu Akdeniz  for your reply.

If I use only transition Id then I got an error message-

{"errorMessages":["one of 'fields' or 'update' required"],"errors":{}}

So, I have to use "update" or "fields" in the request body.

Cf type is a number it is for "Story Points" field.

hope this will help you to solve my problem.
