I'm trying to use the REST api in a laravel app, to add worklogs to an issue on my company's Jira Cloud instance.
Whenever I sent the request it gives me an error, "Can not instantiate value of type [simple type, class com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.rest.json.beans.WorklogJsonBean] from JSON String; no single-String constructor/factory method"
I'm sending the post request to https:my-server.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/issue/ISSUE_ID/worklog with this JSON:
{
"update":{
"worklog":{
"add":{
"timeSpentSeconds":7200,
"comment":"Testing pushing worklog using REST API",
"started":"2017-08-15T14:00:00+00:00"
}
}
}
}
I've also tried sending just:
{
"timeSpentSeconds":7200,
"comment":"Testing pushing worklog using REST API",
"started":"2017-08-15T14:00:00+00:00"
}
Can anyone spot what I'm doing wrong?
Hi Benjamin,
Here is the example from the Cloud API documentation for updating a worklog:
{
"comment": "I did some work here.",
"visibility": {
"type": "group",
"value": "jira-developers"
},
"started": "2017-08-15T06:53:06.605+0000",
"timeSpentSeconds": 12000
}
The format you would use for the call is
PUT /rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/worklog/{id}
Try that format and see if you get different results.
Cheers,
Branden
Thanks for your answer, but how would I give the worklog ID if I'm trying to create a worklog that doesn't exist yet, not update an existing one?

Hi,
Looking for this answer, I found it on API v3 documentation:
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
