Context:
Using JiraPS module, latest, and PowerShell 5.1. On Windows platform.
I am implementing automated creation and updating of Jira Versions as well as Jira Issues. This is regarding updating a previously created Jira Issue using Set-JiraIssue.
Objective:
Update the DueDate field in an existing Jira Issue using Set-JiraIssue. Below is what I'm calling:
$parameters = @{
Fields = @{
DueDate = $NewDueDate
}
}
Set-JiraIssue $parameters -Issue $JiraKey
*$NewDueDate is formatted as a string with -Format "MMMM d, yyyy"
Negative Outcome:
Even though I am only attempting to set the DueDate I am getting the Jira's Summary field value changed (as reflected through the Jira web UI) to the text "System.Collections.Hashtable". And the DueDate field is not updated.
Request:
Please advise where I am going wrong.
I am using calls to Set-JiraIssue elsewhere (but without the parameters & Fields API syntax). I am successfully using the parameters & Fields API syntax in conjunction with calls to New-JiraIssue. I am currently stumped as to where I am going astray here and searching for clues that might resolve my problem.
TIA
Really late to the party, but figured I'd update since you both helped me figure it out. Looks like instead of $parameters, use @parameters. This worked for me:
$j = Get-JiraIssue -Key "RTSAFSYSEN-2521"
$J.DueDate
2022-10-01
$parameters = @{Fields = @{DueDate = "2022-10-10"}}
Set-JiraIssue -key $j.key @parameters -WhatIf
What if: Performing the operation "Updating Issue" on target "RTSAFSYSEN-2521".
Set-JiraIssue -key $j.key @parameters
$j = Get-JiraIssue -Key "RTSAFSYSEN-2521"
$J.DueDate
2022-10-10
What format is the time/date in if you do a get-jiraissue?
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
Sorry for the delayed response, just getting back to this issue.
The format returned for the jira issue DueDate is "yyyy-MM-dd", as in 2021-11-16.
Using the same date format doesn't seem to resolve my inability to update in this case.
See example below. Any insight(s) to resolve are appreciated.
Thanks
Example:
$j = Get-JiraIssue -Key "RM-4001"
$J.DueDate
2021-11-16
$parameters = @{Fields = @{DueDate = "2021-11-16"}}
$j | Set-JiraIssue -Fields $parameters -WhatIf
What if: Performing the operation "Updating Issue" on target "RM-4001".
$j | Set-JiraIssue -Fields $parameters
