How do update Story Point uisng the Issue ID

[pranab_bhatta]

Hi Team,

I wanted to just update Story Point using the issue id, I tried the below request

URL - https://subdomain.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/<Issue ID or Key>

Method: PUT

Body:

{

    "updates": {

        "fields": {

            "customfield_10002": 9

        }

    }

}

Error

{

    "errorMessages": [

        "one of 'fields' or 'update' required"

    ],

    "errors": {}

}

Here I just wanted to update the Story Point for a particular story. I don't want to update other properties.

Could someone please help here?

Thanks,

Pranab

Hi @pranab_bhatta 

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!!

First, get the issue ID from the GET request

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

Next for the sprint, you need to have the custom field ID as in this case my site's custom field was customfield_10020

You need to make the PUT call to update the sprint

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

curl -i --request PUT \
--url 'https://yoursite.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/WSP-128' \
--user 'email:token' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{ "fields": { "customfield_10020": 3 } }'

Thanks,
Pramodh

Hi Pramodh - Thanks for the reply.

I tried, but getting below error -

{

    "errorMessages": [],

    "errors": {

        "customfield_10002": "Field 'customfield_10002' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown."

    }

}

I have used the Issue ID or Key to update the story point.

Thanks,

Pranab
