Internal error when I try to add a worklog

[Carlos Silva]

Hi guys,

   I am facing some problems when I try to add a worklog.

the url is

https://<MYACCOUNT>.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/issue/<ISSUE_ID>/worklog

and the json is

{"comment":"MyTimeTracker Input","started":"2017-08-20T01:20:38.957-03:00","timeSpent":"20m"}

and always when I post this I receive Internal Server Error.

Could you please help me with this issue!?

Tks in advance!

Hi Carlos,

I found this code to work:

'{"timeSpent":"20m","comment":"MyTimeTracker Input","started":"2017-08-20T01:20:38.957-0300"}'

I think there's a couple things going on here:

1. If you only change the time it does not work and you get a 500 error.
2. If you put timeSpent at the beginning it works.
3. If you change the time back to -03:00 you get a 500 error.

From the testing there are two issues here:

1. timeSpent needs to be first
2. You're running into the bug reported in JRASERVER-31460 where the JIRA REST API throws a 500 error code instead of a400 error code with a proper message when an invalid expand value is passed to search the JQL endpoint.

Please vote on JRASERVER-31460 to add impact and test with timeSpent in the beginning to see if you get different results.

Cheers,

Branden
