Create Script Rest Endpoint to Update Custom Field Options

[Hamdy Atakora]

Hello,

All i am trying to Create a Script  Rest Endpoint in scriptrunner that will update options of a multi select and single select custom field. The goal here is to be able to do this via the rest and without having to provide users who should update the custom field option  with admin privileges.

Please assist.

I looked into this but still not sure how to go about updating the options of the custom field

Hello @fjodors  i appreciate you taking the time to get back to me on this.

I have seen these already but these refer to how to update a custom field within an issue.

What i am trying to achieve is update the options value of a custom field in the custom field itself

See attached screenshot

Hello

Have you tried OptionsManager and OptionsService interfaces?
There are some methods for update/set customfield's options, I think these methods could be suitable
