Renaming team managed fields via api?

[Lawrence Wong]

Hi there!

Is there any way of renaming a custom field from a team managed project programmatically using api endpoints?

We are trying to use: 

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-fields/#api-rest-api-3-field-fieldid-put

which works for global custom fields but not for fields created on a Team managed project.

Thank You

Hi @Lawrence Wong 

Team Managed Projects do not support the same level of programmatic customisation via the REST API as Company Managed Projects.  As far as I know, Custom fields created within TMP are scoped only to those projects, and their management is handled differently. The endpoint you’re using (/rest/api/3/field/{fieldId}) is specifically for global custom fields, which are not the same as custom fields in team-managed projects. Please take it with a pinch of salt, as I am unsure.
