Add comment to Jira issue via rest api

Dimitrios Danampasis

I am writing a script in python to update Jira issues with a dynamic comment but I am getting the following error:

AttributeError: 'bytes' object has no attribute 'dumps'

This is part of the code that is failing:

mycomment = "Test comment"

issue_comment = json.dumps( {

    "body": {

        "content": [

        {

            "content": [

            {

                "text": mycomment,

                "type": "text"

            }

            ],

            "type": "paragraph"

        }

        ],

        "type": "doc",

        "version": 1

    }

})

Can you help me with how to pass a variable in this python dictionary?
