How to set additional fields by scripting in Jira-Create Issue action?

I have a flow with Jira - Create Issue action. I am using scripts to set the project key, issue type, summary, additional fields etc.

In my additional fields, I have some json script like this.. 

 

var additionalFields = {
"fields": {
    "labels": "TEST Label",
    "components": "TEST Component"
}
};
var jsonSTR = JSON.stringify(additionalFields);
return jsonSTR;

 

 

when I run the test, response body is not having the additional fields populated. Can someone help me here? Not sure if my approach is right.

 

I want additional fields to show up in response body, and populate the values in Jira.
