Is it possible to change an issue status using Script runner Cloud

Mohammed-Amine Rouh

Hi,

I am trying to change an issue Status (To Do, In Progress or Done), using the following simple method

// Code 1

def result = put("/rest/api/2/issue/${parentEpicKey}")
 .header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
 .body([
 fields: [
 status: "[self:https://domain.com.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/status/3, description:This issue is being actively worked on at the moment by the assignee., iconUrl:https://domain.com.atlassian.net/images/icons/statuses/inprogress.png, name:In Progress, id:3, statusCategory:[self:https://domain.com.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/statuscategory/4, id:4, key:indeterminate, colorName:yellow, name:In Progress]]"
 ]
 ])
 .asString()I get the following error : 

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

 

I have already extracted the value of Status for tickets with this :

//Code 2
def fields = get("/rest/api/2/field")
 .asObject(List)
 .body
 .findAll { (it as Map) } as List<Map>

def statusField = fields.find { it.name == 'Status' }
logger.info("statusField : ${statusField}")

which prints the values I am trying to assign to Status in Code 1.

 

Does anyone have any idea please on what I am missing ?

Thank you

Hi,

Yes you can, use:

POST /rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/transitions

in your body you need to send:

"transition": {
    "id": "5"
  }
