Failing to set Insight field when creating Bug issue via REST API

[Magnus Ljungkrantz]

I am working on creation of Bug issues via REST API but I am having trouble setting the value of an Insight field. Basically I am doing exactly what is described under "Create Issue" on
https://confluence.atlassian.com/insightapps/insight-with-jira-rest-api-1085180905.html

I am able to update the Insight field doing what is described under "Update Issue" in the same article. 

I do not receive any error messages when I create, and the Bug does get created, it is just that the Insight field does not get populated. Any ideas?

Hi @Magnus Ljungkrantz , can you share your configuration? (REST API endpoint + JSON + authentication...)

[Magnus Ljungkrantz]

Currently experimenting from Postman.

Endpoint: rest/api/2/issue/

Method: POST

JSON:

{

    "fields": {

        "project": {

            "key": "DBSQA"

        },

        "issuetype": {

            "name": "Bug"

        },

        "summary": "Created via Jira REST API",

        "description": "Some description.",

        "customfield_11617": [{"key": "DB-115"}]

    }

}

Authentication is the same regardless if I create or update. I have tried both basic authentication using my user/password and bearer token using API key. No errors reported either way.

Ok and can you share the version of your Jira Service Management? I guess you are on Data Center, right?

[Magnus Ljungkrantz]

Yes, Data Center. Version of Jira Service Management is 4.20.11.
