Update JIRA SD comments via REST

Question

Hello

I'm trying to get around the inability to import {{INTERNAL}} comments via CSV, as well as Cloud limitation, and came to a point where I decided to try updating them via REST API.

Documentation here says which endpoint URL to use and responses, however it doesn't provide any clues about which format PUT should be!

I tried various ways, from this

def setComment = put("/rest/api/2/comment/${commentId}/properties/sd.public.comment").body('{
 "key": "sd.public.comment",
 "value": {
 "internal": false
 }
}')

to this

def setComment = put("/rest/api/2/comment/${commentId}/properties/sd.public.comment").body('{internal: false}')

But none of them works. Would appreciate any help on this.

Thanks, will do next time — there just a lot of changes which we didn't get used to yet.

The solution appears to be more simple — just set header and

def setComment = put("/rest/api/2/comment/${commentId}/properties/sd.public.comment")
.header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
.body([internal: true])
.asString()

Hi cPrime - since this is development related, you might want to try asking this over at: https://community.developer.atlassian.com as well (if you haven't already).

There's a lot of helpful and experienced people over there and you might well get a quicker answer in there than on here.
