[Muhammad Ramzan(Atlassian Certified Master)]

When i am creating issue from the Rest API by providing the spring number, its throwing error 

{"errorMessages": [  "Number value expected as the Sprint id."],"errors": {}}

{
"fields": {
"project": {"key": "EAP"},
"summary": "bug",
"issuetype": {"name": "Bug"},
"assignee": {"name": "muh"},
"reporter": {"name": "muh"},
"priority": {"name": "Blocker"},
"customfield_11824": {"value": "test2"},
"customfield_10004": {"value": 1851}
}
}

Hello @Muhammad Ramzan(Atlassian Certified Master),

is 10004 ID of your Sprint custom field?

If so, please, try to replace 

"customfield_10004": {"value": 1851}

with

"customfield_10004": 1851

It is not clear, what do you store to the second custom field with ID 11824, but probably you will have to fix it either.

Thanks it works, other fields are custom fields they are working with the same code

Thanks a lot its working for me... 

and if you want to use Sprint instead of customfield then also you can use it.

e.g."Sprint": 4160

Thanks the below statement worked for Sprint update.

issue.update(notify=False,fields={'customfield_11990':5314})
