Update restriction field with automation

[Matteo Gabanini]

Hello everyone!

I want to update the restriction field (the one with the padlock) using the automation; the values to put it's the same of a custom field.

I tried to use the JSON format, but it seems that the name "issuerestriction" (I find this name invaked the createmeta API) is not correct.

I hope someone can help me :D

@Matteo GabaniniJust sharing how I was able to do it on my side

• Send Web Request
  • Web Request URL: https://<your-instance-url>/rest/api/3/issue/{{issue.key}}
  • HTTP Method: PUT
  • Web Request body: Custom Data
  • Custom Data

    • { 
        "fields": {
          "issuerestriction": {
            "projectrole": [
            {
              "restrictionValue": "<role-id>"
            },
            {
              "restrictionValue": "<other-role-id>"
            }
          ]}
        }
      }

    • the role-id I got by querying an issue that had the restrictions set via UI
  • Headers
    • Content-Type: Application/JSON
    • Authentication: Basic <your-email-address and api-token encoded in base64>

Hi @Matteo Gabanini,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

If you by restriction field means the one that sets the security on the issue then you are looking for the field called security level.

Hi @Mikael Sandberg

  thanks for you answer!

No, I mean this field:

I want to set a specific role using an automation.

Thanks,

  Matteo

[Mikael Sandberg]

That is the security level field, so the field name you are looking for is Security Level.

@Mikael Sandberg

Not OP, but I am on a team-managed (next-gen) board, and when I try to set the Security Level field in the automation it gives me an error

Unknown fields set during edit, they may be unavailable for the project/type. Check your custom field configuration. Fields ignored -

Security Level (security)
