Is there a way to close and/or assign issues in Jira using the Siri Shortcuts app?

Question

I am on a quest to be more productive, and one of the ways i've found is by using the Siri Shortcuts app on my iPhone. I have gotten everything to work up until when i try to change the value of the assignee or the status fields, then I get an error saying "This action is not supported for this field". Anyone have any ideas?

Hi @Thomas Andre Peelen

I've added support for changing user fields (including Assignee). This feature should roll out with version 171 of our app.

Hope this helps,

Simon

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for raising this question!

Like elyfar mentioned, setting the Assignee (or any other user field) is currently not possible, unfortunately. I'll make a note that this was requested and have another look if this is something we can start supporting.

Thanks again,

Simon

They said that these are read write rules for Shortcuts in comments here:

* Component (RW)
* Issue Type (RO)
* Label (RW)
* Number (RW)
* Option (RW)
* Priority (RW)
* Project (RO)
* Resolution (RO)
* Sprint (RO)
* Status (RO)
* Story Points (RW)
* Text (RW)
* URL (RW)
* User (e.g. Assignee) (RO)
* Single Version (RW)

Looks like you won't be able to write assignee and the status.
