How to edit "Component" in JIRA using REST API

Question

Hi ,

I am creating ISSUE from my C# application , but i am not able to fill field "Component" using application .

JSON request is follows ...

data = @{"fields"":{""project"":{""key"":""LHNEWCOPY""},""summary"":""-HPQC-JIRA-_N/A-test by sapient"",""issuetype"":{""id"":""1""},""versions"":[{""name"":""0815""}],
 ""description"":""test by sapient"",""priority"":{""name"":""Cosmetic""},""assignee"":{""name"":""lhnew_sapient_generic_user""},""customfield_11070"":""7478"",
 ""labels"":[""Sapient""],""customfield_10670"":""LH"",""component"":{""id"":""12408""}}}";

I am getting following error ...

{"errorMessages":[],"errors":{"component":"Field 'component' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown."}}

Hi, there.

It seems to be saying that the component field is not in the Create Issue operation for that issue type in the project.

Check the projects configuration and see which Screen Scheme is associated to the issue type of this issue. If the screen associated to the 'Create Issue' operation doesn't contain the 'Component/s' field, adding it should fix the problem.
