You don't really need to know the deep detail of it, I suspect you are asking because you keep seeing it in scripts.

All it really does is give a script a way to create the "manager" type objects that they almost always need.

For example, if I want to do something with projects, like get a list of archived ones, I'll probably need a projectManager. So I'd call ComponentAccessor.getProjectManager to create one to work with in my script.

If you have a rummage through https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/9.5.0/com/atlassian/jira/component/ComponentAccessor.html you'll see that almost all the calls are "get manager or factory object" or "get block of info that doesn't really have a manager" in a few cases.

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist- Hello,

Thanks for explaining above, as this is something new for me, I was bit not sure about my understanding on above, but your explanation clear my doubt.

Thanks
