Update pull request title

Question

Hi,

My requirement is to attach a JIRA issue with pull request and one way I think is to specify the JIRA issue in the pull request title in stash. Can you please help me with the REST API to update the pull request's title with the JIRA issue?

Thanks

Can I do this with merged pull requests (e.g. broken jira links)

Thanks Mikael. It worked perfectly fine after adding version.

You need to use PUT instead of POST, and you also need to include id, version, title, description and reviewers in your payload, not just the new title. Here is an example using Ruby:

def updatePullRequest(url, encode)
  put_request = { :id => 5,
                  :version => 42,
                  :title => "A change - updated via REST API",
                  :description => "A description"
                }

RestClient.put url, put_request.to_json, {:Accept => 'application/json',
                                            :Authorization => 'Basic ' + encode,
                                            :content_type => 'application/json',
                                            :data => put_request}

Note that the version has to be the same as the one you get in reply when doing a GET.
