Delete Jira issue property via Jira Automation

Hi,

With the action 'Set entity property' you can create a Jira issue property.

But is there a way to delete a property? Or is the only way to call the REST API?

Using this:

Will result in:

{
  "key": "myproperty",
  "value": ""
}

Which means that the property still exists, but contains an empty string.

Yeah, I'm afraid that is true, couldn't find it myself.

For reference, use a sent web request with an authorization header, containing an API token:

DELETE {{baseurl}}/rest/api/3/issue/{{issue}}/properties/worklog_{{worklog.id}}

I believe that is only possible with the REST API from a rule. Here is a suggestion to add a delete action for rules: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-22628

Kind regards,
