Updating JSON Data with Groovy's HTTP Builder using PUT - groovy

Question

I have requirement of updating Zendesk Tickets using Groovy HTTP Builder. I use the following code
#Grab(group='org.codehaus.groovy.modules.http-builder', module='http-builder', version='0.5.0-RC2' )
import java.util.Properties;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import groovyx.net.http.*;
import static groovyx.net.http.Method.*;
import groovy.json.*;
import groovyx.net.http.ContentType;
def jsonBuilder = new groovy.json.JsonBuilder();
class MyTicket
{
def subject
}
def myTicket = new MyTicket(
subject: 'xyz'.toString()
)
def ticketList=[myTicket]
jsonBuilder(ticket:ticketList)
println(jsonBuilder)
def authSite = new HTTPBuilder('https://{subdomain}.zendesk.com/api/v2/tickets/{ticketid}.json');
authSite.auth.basic 'username', 'password';
authSite.request( Method.PUT, ContentType.JSON )
{ req ->
uri.path = ''https://{subdomain}.zendesk.com/api/v2/tickets/{ticketid}.json'';
requestContentType = ContentType.JSON;
headers.Accept = 'application/json';
body =[jsonBuilder]
response.success = { resp, reader->
reader.ticket.subject;
}
}
But the ticket is not being updated. Is there any kind of execute method. Kindly Suggest me where I went wrong.

Try this, you'll need to set up your subdomain, ticketid, user and pass (I've removed all the unnecessary imports as well):
#Grab( 'org.codehaus.groovy.modules.http-builder:http-builder:0.6' )
import groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder
import static groovyx.net.http.Method.PUT
import static groovyx.net.http.ContentType.JSON
def subdomain = 'woo'
def ticketid = '123'
def authSite = new HTTPBuilder("https://${subdomain}.zendesk.com/api/v2/tickets/${ticketid}.json");
authSite.auth.basic( 'user', 'pass' )
authSite.request( PUT, JSON ) { req ->
body = [ ticket:[ subject: 'xyz' ] ]
response.success = { resp, json ->
println "Success! ${resp.status}"
}
response.failure = { resp ->
println "Request failed with status ${resp.status}"
}
}
