Bug with assignee method

[Dmitry Borisov]

Hello everybody. I use REST API v2 and assignee method, like PUT https://domain/rest/api/2/issue/issue-13779
Body:
{
"fields": {
"assignee":{"name":"anastasia"}
}
}

Everything was ok till 1-3 days. Now this method doesn't work. When I call it, it makes only unassign person.

Dear @Dmitry Borisov ,

referring to the REST API DOC v2 , its not "name" but "accountId" (see example request).

So long

string
