Create Issue via API returning "Option value is not valid" for Multi Select List custom field

Adam Witek

I'm trying to create an issue via the Rest v3 API and pulling my hair out.

Customfield _10930 is a Multi Select List.

What am I doing wrong?

 

{

 "fields": {

  "project": {

   "key": "PM"

},

  "summary": "This is a test issue",

  "issuetype": {

   "name": "Task"

},

  "customfield_10930": [

{

   "id": "12533"

}

]

}

}

If I do a "GET" on an  issue, I receive back:

"customfield_10930": [

{

"self": "https://virtualsystems.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/customFieldOption/12533",

"value": "dog",

"id": "12533"

}

It turns out I had an "test" Field Context setup and I couldn't see it because my list was so long. By scrolling to the bottom of the list it allowed me to delete the extra context.
