For a workflow post function, how to get the current issue key without knowing issue id?

Tony

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.worklog.WorklogImpl
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

def issueKey = ?
def issue = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueByCurrentKey(issueKey)
def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("customfield_12345")

.......

I need to get the issueKey of the issue that is calling this workflow post function. Can't figure out how to do that.

The code works if I hard-code the issueKey.

Hi @Tony

You don't need to declare and fetch issue. It is already available as a binding variable in postfunction. There is a small question mark sign in the script editor that can help you in finding available binding variable.

Also take a look at this example.

During a post function, you have direct access to the issue object that the post function is currently running against.

So while you can get the key with just

issue.getKey()

You don't need to, because you can just directly use the issue already! You "def issue =" line would be overwriting an object you already have.

Tony

Thank you. In the example, what is the "binding variable" to which you referred to in your response?

Tony

So are you saying issueKey already exists (is populated with current issue key)?

Ravi Sagar _Sparxsys_

All the variables that are related to issue, event, user, etc that are applicable for the functionality where you are writing the script.

If you are using the new version of ScriptRunner just type issue followed by dot and then press Ctrl + space key. You will get the list of all the methods as suggestions. Use the one you need in your script. It is quite good for writing code directly in your Jira.

Tony

When I comment out the line

def issue = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueByCurrentKey("GHD-1234")

ScriptRunner complains that issue is undefined in the subsequent calls.

Ravi Sagar _Sparxsys_

Can you paste the whole code and you are writing it as "Custom script post-function"?

Tony

The Ctrl + Space key does not provide any response at all.

I get an error when just typing in issue.

I am using ScriptRunner 5.5.7 (not the latest)
