set resolutiondate during import via api

[Bibin George]

Using admin Jira import, I can set the resolutiondate on import. 

Via API, I get error when I try to do this. I tried logging in as a system admin, but that also does not work.

I'm pretty sure that you can't change the Resolution Date value in an issue via REST unless you change the Resolution value. And that may change the date to the current date. IIRC, the underlying code for setting the Resolution Date is called by the code that sets the Resolution in an issue

What is the error that you get?

What is the API call that you are executing?

Your post tags indicate you are using Jira Server or Data Center. What specific version are you using?
