How to use Atlassian Document Format in create issue rest api

Question

I am trying to create an issue via Jira API -

{
    // other fields is here
    description: {
      type: "doc",
      version: 1,
      content: [
        {
          type: "text",
          text: summary
        }
     }
}

but I get an error - "Operation value must be a string".

so how can I create an issue correctly?

Answer 1

Most likely you're using API version 2 - which accepts text for this field.

However, you're providing value as json ( Atlassian Document Format ) which is for API version 3
