Insert status label macro over rest api in jira cloud

Janco Hoekstra

Hi community,

I'm trying to insert a status label macro into a multi line textfield (rich text enabled) over rest api using the following payload:

{

    "type": "status",

    "attrs": {

        "colour": "Green",

        "title": "On track",

        "subtle": "true"

    }

}

using https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-status-macro/
document as reference for the type and parameters.

This however does not work...

Does anyone know the right format of the json payload to make this happen? 

P.S. I managed to insert other macro's in quiet the same way, so I suspect that the type or the format of the parameters is not right...

I've found the answer in the following document:  https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/apis/document/nodes/status/.   along with the formats for all other elements.

The correct format for the status label is:

{
  "type": "status",
  "attrs": {
      "localId": "abcdef12-abcd-abcd-abcd-abcdef123456",
      "text": "In Progress",
      "color": "yellow"
    }
}

(the localid has to be a unique value within the issue)
