How can I update a customfield with JIRA Rest?

Question

Hi,

I want to update a customfield with jira rest. Here is the url:

url = http://localhost:8080/rest/api/2/issue/ATL-545/editmeta

I am trying this: { \"fields\": {\"customfield_10609\": \""+Body+"\"}}

But I am getting 405 Error. How can I solve it?

Thanks in advance

In the documentation, it's mentioned that you can use editmeta only to get data not PUT or POST

editmeta is used to retrieve the fields available for editing. To update, you should use PUT on issue key.

See https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/JIRA+REST+API+Example+-+Edit+issues for some examples.
