https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/JIRA+REST+API+Example+-+Edit+issues

All Test issue custom fields provided by Xray can be modified using the Jira REST API:

Test Type (default Jira select field)
Cucumber Test Type (default Jira select field)
Cucumber Scenario (default Jira text field)
Manual Test Steps (JSON format; example below)

Info
The custom field IDs can be obtained using the Jira REST API Browser tool included in Jira. Each ID is of the form "customfield_ID". Another option, which does not require Jira administration rights, is to invoke the "Get edit issue meta" in an existing issue (e.g., in a Test issue) as mentioned here. Example: GET http://yourserver/rest/api/2/issue/CALC-1/editmeta
