create_cycle
Create a new test cycle for a specified project and version, with optional build, environment, dates, or cloning from an existing cycle. Returns the cycle ID and confirmation message.
Instructions
Create a new test cycle.
Dates use Jira's dd/MMM/yy format (e.g. 4/Dec/12). project/version
accept keys/names or ids (prefer ids when you have them, to skip a lookup).
The new cycle is created in version — pass it explicitly (use -1
only if you really want the Unscheduled version). Returns
{id, responseMessage}.
