Updating radio button field on JIRA using Python

Vivek Venkatesan

I am trying to update radio button fields in JIRA using python logic by building a dictionary. After I built the dictionary, when I try to create issue in JIRA, I am getting an error message -

 

<span>'customfield_10543'</span>: <span>"Option id 'null' is not valid"</span>}

 Python logic:

 

options = [<span>'10461'</span>,<span>'10462'</span>]
new_issues = []
new_issue = {
                    <span>'project'</span>: {<span>"key"</span>:<span>"Test"</span>},
                    <span>'summary'</span>: <span>'Test Summary'</span>,
                    <span>'description'</span>: <span>'Test issue by Jira Integration'</span>
)

<span>if</span> df.having_pet.iloc[i] == <span>'YES'</span>:
   new_issue[having_pet] = {<span>'value'</span>:options[<span>0</span>]}
<span>if</span> df.having_pet.iloc[i] == <span>'NO'</span>:
   new_issue[having_pet] = {<span>'value'</span>:options[<span>1</span>]}
new_issues.append(new_issue)
jira.create_issues(field_list=new_issues)

 

HTML component from Chrome Inspector:

 

<<span>input</span> <span>class="radio" id="customfield_10543-1" name="customfield_10543" type="radio" value="10461" resolved="">
<label for="customfield_10543-1">
Yes
</label>
<input checked="checked" class="radio" id="customfield_10543-2" name="customfield_10543" type="radio" value="10462" resolved="">
<label for="customfield_10543-2">
No
</label></span>

 Please advise how to update the radio button on JIRA based on dataframe that i have.

PD Sheehan

I know nothing of python or what seems to be a python jira client.

But I know that when updating a radion button with a REST API, the JSON for the value of the option you want to select will look like either

{"customfield_10543":{"value":"Yes"}}

or

{"customfield_10543":{"id":"10461"}}

So I would try changing this:

new_issue[having_pet] = {<span>'value'</span>:options[<span>0</span>]}

to

new_issue[having_pet] = {<span>'value'</span>:'Yes'}

or

new_issue[having_pet] = {<span>'id'</span>:options[<span>0</span>]}
