I am attempting to set the due date for a new issue however it's not being set when I post the json object, the issue is created however. I noticed some posts referencing a customfield for setting the duedate however if I manually set a due date and call a get against the issue I don't see any fields which have the date info (epoch or otherwise) on customfields, just duedate. I have tried various formats for the date and have had no luck in setting it via an API call.
"duedate" : "1525788000000"
"duedate" : 16-5-2018"
"duedate" : 16-5-2018Txxxxxxxx"
etc..
thanks.
