## Description

Updates fields on an existing Jira Service Desk request via the Jira platform API. Use this to change the summary, priority, description, or other fields after a request has been created. Use **List Sites** first to obtain the required `cloudId`. Use **List My Requests** or **Get Request** to find the `issueKey` (e.g. `IT-42`). `fields` is a JSON object of field name-value pairs. Example: `{"summary": "Updated title", "priority": {"name": "High"}}`. [See the documentation](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-put)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `cloudId` | `string` | Yes | The Atlassian site (cloud) ID, e.g. 822faf0d-5427-420e-9016-999d3dc76918. Run List Sites to get the id of every site you can access. |
| `issueIdOrKey` | `string` | Yes | The ID or key of the Jira Service Desk request (e.g. IT-42 or 10001). Use List My Requests to find the issueKey of a request (in its requests array). |
| `fields` | `string` | Yes | JSON object of Jira field name-value pairs to update. Example: {"summary": "New title", "priority": {"name": "High"}}. Use Get Request to see current field values. |

## Run it

import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {

        "x-pd-app-slug": "jira_service_desk",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "jira_service_desk-update-issue-fields",
  arguments: {
    cloudId: "Cloud ID",
    issueIdOrKey: "Issue ID or Key",
  },
})
