Updating single select custom field with automation for Jira

Nikki Zavadska _Appfire_

Hi 👋 ,

I'm trying to create automation that updates the custom field that I created with an option from that custom field.

 

The JSON I'm using to update is:

{
"fields": {
"customfield_10121": { "value": "b" }
},
}

(I figured this based on the documentation here: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/advanced-field-editing-using-json/ 

 

This is how my custom field values look like in the GET issue api:

The values that are available in the dropdown for this field are a and b

 

When I run the automation I get the following error:

Error while parsing additional fields. Not valid JSON.

 

I can't see what I'm doing wrong here, I tried many options already but can't figure it out. Did anyone have a similar problem and find a solution?

Hi @Nikki Zavadska _Appfire_ 

It's working fine, give the actual custom field name

{
  "fields": {
  "Radio Button": {
    "value": "2"
    }
  }
}

Thanks,
Pramodh
