Can jira-cli be used to re-rank issues in Todo?

[h0adp0re]

I need to automate adding issues to the top of Todo, is this possible with the Jira API?

---

Edit: I realized I can check the schema from the config file and there was indeed a "Rank" field. Alas, attempting to assign a value to the field results in this:

Error:
  - customfield_10009: Field 'customfield_10009' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown.

jira: Received unexpected response '400 '.
Please check the parameters you supplied and try again.

The command issued was this:

jira issue edit CODE-1234 --no-input --custom rank="Top"

Bumping the question since it seems it's been neglected.

Hi @h0adp0re, sorry I missed this one. The rank is a custom field in your installation, so I assume one of the two things might be happening.

1. Either the Rank field is not available when editing the issue (hence the error). Is this field available when editing the issue in the UI?
2. Or, the datatype of Rank field is something that is not supported by the tool yet. Can you check what datatype is listed for the field in config? More on that here.
