Scriptrunner: Validator for "is blocked by" linked issue

MiskaT

Hello Guys,

I'm trying to block a Status while it has an linked issue "is blocked by". I already tried out several solutions, but otherwise nothing happens or the status is always blocked even if there aren't any linked issues.

 

Maybe on top it would be nice if I can even check the linked issue if it's not approved yet.

If you visit the {Jira Base URL}/secure/admin/ViewLinkTypes!default.jspa

And click on the Blocks edit button in the URL will have the ID of the Blocks IssueLink (mine was 10000)

Then in the Scripted Validator add the following code to a Simple scripted validator (in the condition section): 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def BLOCKED_BY_LINKID = 10000

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager()

def links = issueLinkManager.getInwardLinks(issue.getId())

def linkedIssue

for(def link : links) {
    if(link.getLinkTypeId() == BLOCKED_BY_LINKID){

    // Have this section if you want to check the "is blocked by" linked issues status
    linkedIssue = link.getSourceObject()
    if(!linkedIssue.getStatus().getName().equals("Closed")){
        return false
    }

    // If you dont want that extra check then return false and remove the above if
    return false

    }
}

return true
