How to keep few sub-tasks names same (of our choice) under a parent task?

Kaushik Patel_vhifp1

I want to keep few sub-tasks names same under a parent-task. Not same as parent task, but different title than parent task. Also, not all sub-tasks should have same exact title.

I have ScriptRunner Server version. I am using JIRA 8.5.1 Server version.

I am a newbie in coding. Hence, I would need query which I can run using ScriptRunner console or wherever in JIRA.

Example: A parent task has 50 sub-tasks. Out of these 50 sub-tasks, the query should allow me to mention comma separated IDs of sub-tasks for which I want to keep title as "Test-123".

The query should only impact title of the sub-tasks mentioned in the query and rest sub-tasks titles should be intact.

How can I achieve this?

Thanks,

Kaushik.

I am not sure what you are trying to do here.

Sub-tasks have a single parent issue, they are a part of that one issue. It's nonsense to pretend that they are a part of two separate issues. So there's no logical way to do what you describe.

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- All I want is few of the sub-tasks to have same titles (not necessarily same as parent one). I am not saying sub-tasks are part of two separate issues (or parent tasks).

As mentioned in my example, the parent task will be same, but in that parent task, I want several sub-tasks having same title. I hope this clarifies.

Thanks,

Kaushik.

Thank you for clarifying that, but you have lead me to needing another one.

Are you asking about how you might use Scriptrunner to create sub-tasks (with the same summary), or how to use JQL to find them?

If it's a scripted create, I base all of mine on the script at https://library.adaptavist.com/entity/create-a-sub-task-when-the-parent-issue-has-a-specific-label.

If it's "how do I search", we're going to need a more detailed explanation of what you want to search for.

Thank you @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-

It is not scripted create. Assume that the parent task already has so many sub-tasks created. Now, among those sub-tasks, I want several sub-tasks to have same title.

So, I want know how can I use ScriptRunner to have these sub-tasks having same title (remember, not all sub-tasks under that parent task, but only the selected IDs that I might type in query)

Thanks,

Kaushik.
