ScriptRunner - How to tell what version of the Java API it is using

[Mark Ahnell]

Trying out some scripts I found here and online for ScriptRunner, some that were posted some time ago.  When I try some of these out, I am getting errors since the classes and methods have since been deprecated.  Is there a way to tell what version of the java API ScriptRunner is using?  I am currently using the documentation for 7.6.1 (https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/7.6.1/) as my reference, but I don't know if this is the correct on I should be using.

@Mark Ahnell  

did you try  https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/latest/  it should give you the latest JIRA JAVA API 

if you keep updating your Scriptrunner for jira with your instance you then your code should work with the latest JAVA API version 

i suppose your JIRA version is the latest 

Note : The above url will give you this version 

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/8.13.6/

the latest version is https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/8.16.1/

Great tip using "latest", thank you!

Scriptrunner can only use the Java api that is presented by the Jira system you are working on.  So if you're on Jira 8.13, it will be using the api for 8.13

8.0 dropped a load of deprecated stuff, so a lot of scripts for 7 stopped working because they make calls to an api that has gone away.  And I do mean a lot.

Was wondering if the Jira version and Java API documentation was linked, thank you!
