Scripted field for status of Epic

Jeroen van der Veen

I want to have a scripted field in my development tickets which can show me the current status of the linked Epic. This can help me create an overview for my releases.

We have Scriptrunner , JCMF and Automation for Jira.

I have looked at a lot of scripts through this forum, but none which does the trick for me.

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Assuming you want the workflow status of the epic (and not the internal epic status (new/in progress/done) ... you can do the following using a scriptrunner custom scripted field:

Give your new field a name: Status Of Epic

Set template = Custom

Put the following in the template:

#set ($componentAccessor = $constantsManager.getClass().forName('com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor').newInstance())
#set ($cfManager = $componentAccessor.customFieldManager)
#set ($epicLinkField = $cfManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Epic Link'))
#set ($epic = $issue.getCustomFieldValue($epicLinkField))
#set ($status = $epic.status)
<span 
   class="jira-issue-status-lozenge aui-lozenge 
      jira-issue-status-lozenge-$status.statusCategory.colorName" 
   data-tooltip="
     <span class=&quot;jira-issue-status-tooltip-title&quot;>
       $status.descTranslation
     </span>
   " 
>
   $status.nameTranslation
</span>

Then in the Inline Script:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
def cfManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
def epicLinkField = cfManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Epic Link')

def epic = issue.getCustomFieldValue(epicLinkField)
epic.status.name

 If you don't care about displaying the status like it does for the current issue (with lozenge and color) then your can just set template=text
