How move issue to another project via REST API

[Dmitry Tumash]

How must look JSON request to change issue project?

I tryed next:

https://XXX.YYY.net/rest/api/2/issue/AAA-1/

• { "update" : { "project" : [{"move" : {"key" : "OD"}}] } }

I getting this error:

"project": "Field 'project' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown."

• {"fields":{"project":{"key":"OD"}}}

I getting 204 code but issue do not moved

You can't move issues to another project using REST. Some cases might be straight forward but there can be far worse situation that needs user intervention (like mapping fields) and so this is difficult to achieve in a single call.

If I understood you right. I can not do action using REST that do web version?

Hi peng,

it's still the same in the latest API. You can not move Issue to another Project.

I make it my own way. I delete old Issue and create new Issue to new Project, but you have to post(create) Attachments and comments as well and that is horrible work..
