Automatic subtask creation

Marat_f08hi2

I need to create several subtasks when creating a issue.
The number of subtasks depends on the filled in custom fields when creating a issue.
The user in the custom field must become a performer in subtasks

I saw in the scriptranner the possibility of creating subtasks, but it is difficult for me to figure out how to do what I described above.

pls Help)

You certainly will want an addon. Scriptrunner, Powerscripts, Automation for Jira all are good. I currently use the last one in this list and it is pretty easy to use. It is less "scripty". Bob Swift is coming out with one that focuses on "drag and drop" automation so that may be worth a look as well. It is best to assess you needs now and in the future, read the marketplace overviews and ultimately trial a few.

To add to what Jack said, if you choose scriptrunner or already have it, here is a snippet that creates subtasks. You would have to create a custom script postfunction.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def constantManager = ComponentAccessor.getConstantsManager()
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def issueFactory = ComponentAccessor.getIssueFactory()
def subTaskManager = ComponentAccessor.getSubTaskManager()
def userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()

def numberOfSubtasksId = 11001
def numberOfSubtasks = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(numberOfSubtasksId)
def numberOfSubtasksValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(numberOfSubtasks)

def performerId = 11002
def performer = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(performerId)
def performerValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(performer)

for (int i=1; i<=numberOfSubtasksValue; i++){
MutableIssue newSubTask = issueFactory.getIssue()
newSubTask.setReporter(issue.reporter)
newSubTask.setAssignee(performerValue?.getKey())
newSubTask.setSummary("Subtask n°" + i)
newSubTask.setParentObject(issue)
newSubTask.setProjectObject(issue.getProjectObject())
newSubTask.setIssueTypeId(constantManager.getAllIssueTypeObjects().find{it.getName() == "Sub-task"}.id)
newSubTask.setDescription("Description for Subtask n°" + i)
Map<String,Object> newIssueParams = ["issue" : newSubTask] as Map<String,Object>
issueManager.createIssueObject(issue.reporter, newIssueParams)
subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(issue, newSubTask, issue.reporter)
}

Assuming numberOfSubtasks is a Number field and performer is a User picker (single).

Yes, we already have scriptrunner.
I have several custom fields "Person 1 - n "(User picker (single)) When a issue is created, it is necessary that subtasks are created depending on the filled "Person" fields and each Person becomes an executor in a subtask.

Antoine Berry

How do you know how many subtasks you want to create ?

Marat_f08hi2

That is the problem.
if three fields were filled
Person1
Person2
Person3
then there should be three subtasks
for Person 1-3.
