POST request to JIRA REST API to create issue of type Minutes

[Arjun]

my $url2 = 'https://url.com:123/rest/api/2/issue';
my $create_issue_json = '{"fields": { "project": { "key": "NCG3D" }, "summary": "summary of my first issue", "versions": [{"Affects Versions/s": "v2.1"}, {"name": "v2.1"}], "Brands": ["Opel"], "components": "SW_VERSION", "description": "Creating an issue via REST API", "issuetype": { "name": "Minutes" }}}';

$tx1 = $jira_ua->post($url2 => json => decode_json($create_issue_json));
my $res1 = $tx1->res->body;

The above produces the following output

{"errorMessages":["Brands: Brands is required.","Detection: Detection is required."],"errors":{"components":"Component/s is required."}}

But these fields are available only in issue of type bug and not for type Minutes.

Sorry, this is due to the configuration issue at Jira Admin side which I wasn't aware of before and now I've requested to correct(to remove mandatory option for Brands and Detection) and it works okay now.

Hi @Arjun 

Welcome to the Community!!

I'm mesmerized by the API Call

Can you try the below API and let me know if it works

pip install atlassian-python-api

jira = Jira( url='https://your-jira-instance.company.com', token=jira_access_token )

fields = {'summary': 'New summary'}
jira.issue_create(fields)

https://atlassian-python-api.readthedocs.io/jira.html

Thanks

from atlassian import Jira

jira = Jira( url='https://jira.instance.com', token='used PAT token' )

fields = {'project': 'sample', 'summary': 'sample issue'}
jira.issue_create(fields)

produces below o/p:
