Delete an issue link in CLOUD Scriptrunner with groovy

[Zita Bagi]

Dear All,

I can link issues in Cloud with Scriptrunner

https://library.adaptavist.com/entity/add-or-update-the-issue-link-for-an-issue-in-jira

but I haven't been able to find a way to remove an issue link.

I tried null here, but it didn't work:

def link = post('/rest/api/2/issueLink')
.header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
.body([
type: [ name: linkType ],
outwardIssue: [ key: null], 
inwardIssue: [ key: null] 
])
.asString()

Does anyone have any suggesstions?

Thank you!

It worked like this:

 def link = delete('/rest/api/2/issueLink/'+linkId)
 .header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
 .asObject(Map)

Hi @Zita Bagi  Insted of POST , use "Delete".

Thanks

Hi @Vikrant Yadav I tried it and I get this:

2021-08-09 16:25:06.504 ERROR - groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: Script1.DELETE() is applicable for argument types: (String) values: [/rest/api/2/issueLink/25225]

It's like this:

 def link = DELETE('/rest/api/2/issueLink/'+linkId)
.header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
.asString()

Thank you if you can have a look at this!

Have a look at this class from the link you provided.

com.atlassian.jira.issue.link.IssueLinkTypeManager

ComponentAccessor.issueLinkManager.removeIssueLinks(issue, currentUser)

Thanks, but I wrote CLOUD. Cloud groovy is different form server.

I'm aware of removeIssueLinks on server.
