How to copy parent ticket summary to sub-task summary (by script) ?

Kostas Mackevic

I have coded our current JIRA (5.2.6) to create two sub-task on specific workflow transition. Our business users have one request. They want that sub-task should have the same summary as parent ticket + a prefix. Example:

Parent ticket summary: "Good summary"
Sub-task summary: "[Text] Good summary"

So i tried to modify script:

issue.summary = "[Text]" + transientVars["issue"].summary

but it did not worked.

Can anyone help me with that ?

It's a bit ugly but this is the correct code:

issue.summary = "[Text] " + transientVars["originalissueobject"].summary

What is the context here... what plugin are you using, is this usinga built-in script function?

I am using Script Runner. I am creating a listener for a specific transition, on which execution JIRa will create two sub-tasks with specific summary. Summary consist of [Prafix]+"Parent ticket summary" Here is a screen shot what i want to do:

Hm, it seems that it does not work. When i set this script then sub-task is not created. If i specify issue.summary = "[Text]" then sub-task with [Text] summary is created.<br>

I tested this and it did work - try putting your function last in the list of post-functions.

Jamie,

I have several questions. Lets start from begining. With your plugin i create a Sub-task listener. Listener configurations:

-------------------------------------------------------
ID 	Parameters
0 	Create a sub-task.
Subtask will be created with issue type: Descriptions Sub-task
Events: [Subtask Created]
Projects: [MOD]
Edit | Delete | Move down
-------------------------------------------------------
1 	Create a sub-task.
Subtask will be created with issue type: Photography Sub-task
Events: [Subtask Created]
Projects: [MOD]
Edit | Delete | Move up
------------------------------------------------------

Now these listeners are working and creates Sub-task on specifick transition and on "Custom Event".

But when i put issue.summary = "[Text]" then sub-task with [Text] summary is created.

in "Additional issue actions" then listeners do not work. Please see attached image:

Please addvise what i am doing wrong ?

Basically what i need? Example:

On specific transition or workflow in need to create two or more sub-task with summarry: [Description] Parent issue summary.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
