Editing an issue via Google script and JSON

[Rea Krakover]

i'm trying to edit an existing through Google script.

I've researched and came up with this code:

function sendData() {
 var username = "username";
 var password = "password";
 var encCred = Utilities.base64Encode(username+":"+password);
 
 var url = "https://<base URL>/rest/api/2/issue/";
 var data = { "fields": {"summary": "new summary edit"} };
 var payload = JSON.stringify(data);

 var headers = { 
 "Accept":"application/json", 
 "Content-Type":"application/json", 
 "Authorization":"Basic " + encCred,
 };

 var options = { 
 "method":"POST",
 "contentType" : "application/json",
 "headers": headers,
 "payload" : payload
 };
 var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
 Logger.log(response); 
 }

But i'm getting an error

Request failed for.... returned code 405

What am i missing here? any idea why this won't work?

To editing an issue you shoud use this REST: https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/7.4.0/#api/2/issue-editIssue

Pay attention to:

 var url = "https://<base URL>/rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}";

"method":"PUT",

Thank you guys for your help!

using @Gregor Kasmann_Actonic reference, i've changed the data variable to 

{"update":{"summary":[{"set":"Bug in business logic"}]}}; 

the url to 

var url = "https://<base URL>/rest/api/2/issue/41335";

and changed the method in the options var to

"method":"PUT",

And now it works! 

Thank you very much!

Is fetch working successfully, Im getting BAD Request error. Im trying to integration Google sheet online. 

If possible pls share the code.

UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);

Hello,

You use POST /rest/api/2/issue/. This REST function creates an issue, but you do not provide project and issue type. Your playload is wrong
