Set properties when creating a comment

[Fernando Boucquez]

Hi team!

Does anybody know how to create a comment with properties in the same rest call? I need to be sure that the property is set before processing the ISSUE_UPDATED event.

REST api doesn't say 

https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/#d2e498

but Filip's comment in https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/ACJIRA-306 shows an example that I couldn't make it work (array notation is not quite right?)

{
   "body":"comment body",
    "visibility": {
        "type": "role",
        "value": "Administrators"
    }
    "properties": [
        "propertykey" : {}, // valid JSON object here
        "secondPropertykey" : {} // another valid JSON object here
    ]
}

When trying 

{"body":"The comment!","properties":[{"someProperty":123}]}

I'm getting a 

{"errorMessages":["N/A (through reference chain: com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.rest.json.beans.CommentJsonBean[\"properties\"])"]}

error response from JIRA

Cheers

Fernando

Hi Fernando,

the API expects a body with the properties on the following form.

{

    "body":"The comment!",

    "properties":[

        {

            "key": "someProperty",

            "value": {

                "foo": 123

            }

        }

    ]

}

The 200 response for /rest/api/2/comment/{commentId}/properties/{propertyKey} defines the format of a single property, but I've raised ACJIRA-397 for completing the documentation.

Regards,

Einar

Thanks Einar for the quick response. New notation did the trick!

Could you also update the doc around comment creation (POST /rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/comment) with your example?

Is it possible to 'expand' get issue and get comments methods to get the objects and their properties at the same time?

Hi Fernando,

I meant for the ticket I linked above to cover updating the comment properties representations of all the REST API methods where they are used.

?expand=properties works for GET /rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/comment/{id}, but the equivalent doesn't seem to be supported for http://example.com:8080/jira/rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}.

Einar
