Hi there,

There some documentation over at the developer sire which shoes you. You need to use the Issue Service object to transition your issue through the workflow, assuming your issue has a valid route to the close status, then it's quite simple.

IssueInputParameters issueInputParameters = new IssueInputParametersImpl();
issueInputParameters.setAssigneeId("newdude");
 
IssueService issueService = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueService();
 
TransitionValidationResult transitionValidationResult = issueService.validateTransition(user, 12345L, 10000L, issueInputParameters);
 
if (transitionValidationResult.isValid())
{
    IssueResult transitionResult = issueService.transition(user, transitionValidationResult);
    if (!transitionResult.isValid())
    {
        // Do something
    }
}

What I wouldn't recommend is tryng to just update status in any kind of way.

Look down under Transitioning an existing issue
