Bug #125979 for JIRA-Client-Automated: update_issue doesn't call _convert_to

Subject:	update_issue doesn't call _convert_to_customfields

I don't know if this was intentional, or an oversight, but I've just started playing with this module to automate a process, and was having trouble updating issues. The documentation wasn't clear on how to handle custom fields, if they should use the English name or field name, but it suggests using get_issue(), so I went with English names, only to find updates failing. Looking through the code it appears that $self->_convert_to_customfields is called on a create, but not on an update_issue, which seems inconsistent. I've worked around it by calling the convert_to_customfields method directly in my script to update my hash prior to the update. Thanks for the module, it's saved me a bunch of time.

Thanks for reporting this! It's not intentional, just a case of "we didn't have to do that for our implementation". :-) If you'd like to submit a pull request to fix this, I'd be happy to accept it. Please fork https://github.com/frimicc/jira-client-automated and then submit your fix. (I'm no longer a JIRA administrator at my office, so it's hard for me to test the changes at the moment.) Thanks for using the module! -- Michael Friedman On Wed Aug 01 08:33:27 2018, Mark.Montminy@mrcy.com wrote: Show quoted text
