REST API: set value "Automatic" for Insight field

Michael Bachmann_1dy59l

Hello,

we are creating issues from external applications using Jiras REST API which works very well.
We also have some Insight custom fields that use an assign scope so when creating a new issue within Jira you can select the value "Automatic" to let the field be filled automatically using the defined IQL.

Is it somehow possible to set that value "Automatic" using the REST API and would Insight even be triggered that way?

REST API

/rest/api/2/issue

Body

{
 "fields": {
 "project": {
 "id": "10000"
 },
 "summary": "something's wrong",
 "issuetype": {
 "id": "10003"
 },
 "reporter": {
 "name": "admin"
 }
 },
 "description": "bla blub",
 "customfield_10505": {
 "value": "Automatic"
 }
} 

Greetings,
Michael

Hi Michael.

       The label "Automatic" is showing in a CF (as a "Placeholder") whenever there is a Filter Assign Scope defined for the CF in the Insight CF configuration. In order to trigger the Filter Assign scope, please set the following in the JSON for the CF:

"customfield_10505": [{ "key": "AUTOMATIC-ASSIGN" }]

Note that your JSON contains an extra "}" after "reporter" that needs to be removed:

{
"fields": {
"project": {
"id": "10000"
},
"summary": "something's wrong",
"issuetype": {
"id": "10003"
},
"reporter": {
"name": "admin"
},
"description": "bla blub",
"customfield_10505": [{ "key": "AUTOMATIC-ASSIGN" }]
}
} 

Kind regards,

Yinon
