/rest/api/3/issue/assignee does not allow default assignee by account ID

XMLWordPrintable

    • Severity 3 - Minor

      The Jira REST API for assigning issues should allow you to assign an issue to the default assignee by specifying "-1", according to the documentation. 

      e.g. 

      /rest/api/2/issue/<issue_key>/assignee

      This works when specifying the assignee by name, but not when specifying the assignee by account ID.
