Edit issue custom field with smart value from webResponse.body

[Grzegorz Ostrowski]

In my automation rule I use send web request component. It returns me for example this json in {{webResponse.body}}:

{"zadanieNumer":"ZGL/2022/02/11","zadanieGuid":"dcc40184-e41c-4d70-97a9-053f6039b4cc"}

In next step i use Edit issue component to set value to custom field.

When I set field with value: {{webResponse.body.zadanieGuid}} i get empty value.

The same with {{webResponse.body.zadanieNumer}}. It should be possible to get value this way. Can somebody write mi what I am doing wrong?

I added screen with my Edit Issue component.

Hi @Grzegorz Ostrowski ,

I went ahead and tested your smart value and it's valid so there's no issues there. 

Could you confirm that you have the setting in the image below set?

@Mark Davidson Yes I have it checked

I have if/else compound after web request compound to handle response. I get correct response. And correct json in {{webResponse.body}}.

If possible could you please share a screenshot of your entire automation rule, hard to tell that one of the many factors that could be effecting this aren't present.

@Mark Davidson This is schemat of my automation rule:

@Mark Davidson  I have managed using this code in Edit Issue component to get values from JSON {"zadanieNumer":"ZGL/2022/02/11","zadanieGuid":"dcc40184-e41c-4d70-97a9-053f6039b4cc"}.

But it should be as simple as {{webResponse.body.zadanieGuid}}. Why it dont work in my case. Is this some kind of bug?

Hi @Grzegorz Ostrowski 

From your solution you've posted above, it seems like the webhook body is being read in as a string, and not the dictionary/map structure. Is it possible to check whether the webhook sender is encapsulating the data inside a string when it sends the webhook?
