Edit Issue

Edits an issue from a JSON representation.

The issue can either be updated by setting explicit the field value(s) or by using an operation to change the field value.

The fields that can be updated, in either the fields parameter or the update parameter, can be determined using the Get Transitions action. If a field is not configured to appear on the edit screen, then it will not be in the editmeta, and a field validation error will occur if it is submitted.

Parameters

{
"summary": "Completed orders still displaying in pending",
"labels": ["todo", "blitz"],
"customfield_10010": 1
}
Issue ID Or KeyThe ID or key of the issue. Can be obtained via the List Issues action.
