Advanced Editing using automation for Jira

Janakiraman S

Hi Team,

I am trying to update a custom field by removing couple of entries and adding a new entry. I have a manual triggerwith two edit Issue blocks as below.  When I run this, the value CW10 is added and the value CW12 gets removed. But the value CW11 still remains on the custom field. 

{
"update": {
"CF_name": [{
"remove": {"value": "CW11"},
"remove": {"value": "CW12"}
}]
}
}

 {
"update": {
"CF_name": [{
"add": {"value": "CW10"}
}]
}
}

 I find it really strange and cannot understand why CW11 is not getting removed. If you have been through this, please suggest if and how this can be fixed.

Thanks for your suggestions,

Janaki.

This sounds that it only works with one "remove", can you try

"CF_name": [{
"remove": [{"value": "CW11"},{"value": "CW12"}]
}]

or

"CF_name": [{
"remove": {"value": "CW11"}
}],
"CF_name": [{
"remove": {"value": "CW12"}
}]

and if neither work, set up the same action with json twice? One to remove CW11 only, second time to remove CW12 only.

I don't see any good documentation about multiple values but those would be my first ideas to try.
