Hello,

Hi Alexey..

I have constructed requested rest service  following to update summary.

/rest/api/2/issue/10206/editmeta

This is my request payload.

{
"update":
{
"summary":"Thi is my update summary"
}
}

getting following error.

[Alexey Matveev]

You should use PUT /rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}

not the eidtmeta

[Nageswara Rao Koppisetti]

I have removed editmeta.

/rest/api/2/issue/10206

Request payload is :

{
"update":
{
"summary":"Thi is my update summary"
}
}

but getting below error.

{
"errorMessages": [
"Can not deserialize instance of java.util.ArrayList out of VALUE_STRING token\n at [Source: org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteInputStream@1440b411; line: 4, column: 1] (through reference chain: com.atlassian.jira.rest.v2.issue.IssueUpdateBean[\"update\"])"
]
}

{"fields":{"summary":"This is a shorthand for a set operation on the summary field","description":"description changed"}}

PUT /rest/api/2/issue/issuekey
