Can't open new Defect in Jira Via Python

Question

Can't open new defect in Jira Via Python (3.6 - Jira Module)

This is my Code:

issue_dict = {
  'project': {'key': 'DET'},
  'summary': 'New issue from jira-python',
  'description': 'Look into this one',
  'issuetype': {'name': 'Defect'},
  'Severity': {'name' : 'High'},
  'defecttype': {'name': 'Performance'},
  'affectsversion/s': {'name': 'test'},
  'testingstream': {'name': 'CET'},
}

new_issue = jira.create_issue(fields=issue_dict)

I'm Getting error message on 4 specific fields that exist in Jira issues and defect screen and also the options are valid on jira,

Severity

testingstream

affectsversion/s

defecttype

This is my error message:

JiraError HTTP 400 url: https://jira/rest/api/2/issue text: Field 'testingstream' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown., Field 'Severity' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown., Field 'affectsversion/s' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown., Field 'defecttype' cannot be set.

It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown.","defecttype":"Field 'defecttype' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown."}}

Does anyone know what can possibly go wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Your fields are not standard. They are custom fields. To get mapping you should make request:

from pprint import pprint
allfields = jira.fields()
name_map = {field['name']:field['id'] for field in allfields}
pprint(name_map)

When you have the mapping you can create an issue using code:

    new_issue = jira.create_issue(fields={name_map['Severity']: {'value': 'Minor'}, 'project': 'DET', 'issuetype': 'Defect', 'summary': 'New issue from jira-python'})

Hope, I helped :)
