Update custom field adding new values

Question

Hi all,

I want to update a custom field via curl API REST. It is a text field multiline type.

I can update the custom field (13630) but it always displays the last value.

curl -k -D- -u "user:pass" -X PUT --data '{"fields":{"customfield_13630": "'"
Message:: This is a test"'"}}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://jira.com/rest/api/2/issue/BUG-0000

Any way to do that appending the new values and not removing the old ones?

Thanks in advance!

Regards

Hey Alberto,

Unfortunately this is not possible, you need to know the previous value to append the new value to it.

It always updates the existing value by design.

No luck!!
