Create (sub)tasks on an Insight Custom Field with several objects

[Marco Brundel]

Hi,

I have an Insight Custom Field in which several objects are filled in.
Now I want to automatically create a (sub)task for every object entered in the Insight Custom Field.
How can this be achieved? Anyone have ideas or tips?

I'm already looking at a post on the community
But I can't get the part with a value removed from an insight custom field to work.

Regards, Marco


p.s. I have access to scriptrunner, automation for jira and JMWE, among other apps

Hi @Marco Brundel 

you could do that with JMWE's Create Issue(s) post-function, returning the value of the Insight custom field in the Iterator script. Then, if you need to access the "current" insight object (during the iteration) to set a field on the new issue, you can use the "it" variable to refer to it.

I got it done with JMWE. Thank you!

Hi @David Fischer ,

one additional question.

I want to include the information of the "current" insight object in the summary and/or description, is that possible?

Example Summary:
Take action on <%=issue.get("customfield_14702")%>

If so, what is the right groovy?
