Is it possible to set duedate with Jira in Python

[kenneth]

Hi,

Is it possible to set duedate with Jira using Python. I tried Jira.client and atlassian api library. But couldn't able to update.

Below  code  used to update using Jira.client library. but I could able to update summary and other fields.

issue.update(fields={"duedate": "2020-05-22"} )

I got below error

JIRAError: JiraError HTTP 400 url: http://jira.mydomain.net/rest/api/2/issue/220370
	text: Field 'duedate' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown.

Please help

Hi @kenneth 

This is related to configurations in Jira.

Could you check the field configurations and verify that the due date is available on the add/edit screens for the issue type within this project.

Also verify that your user has the "Schedule Issues Permission" for the project.
