How to log effort in JIRAs using REST API?

How to log effort in JIRAs using REST API? JIRA is used in project planning and we need to daily log effort on the jira, is there any REST API example to log effort for jira?

Such as we can use below code to get the content of jira

      url = '{base}/rest/api/issue/{jira_id}'.format(base=self.JIRA_BASE,jira_id=jira_id)

        r = self.s.get(url, headers=headers)
