Bulk Delete Issues Using ScriptRunner

Question

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew how to bulk delete issue using scriptrunner?

I dont know if 'issueManager.deleteIssueNoEvent(issue)' is part of it?

Thanks

Rob

which version is your jira.

looking for info, it seems that in Jira 8.x.x

searchProvider.search

has changed and now takes only query and pager as parameters.

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/8.1.0/com/atlassian/jira/issue/search/SearchProvider.html

I'm running jira 7.x and  searchprovider.search takes query, user and pager as parameters.

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/6.4.1/com/atlassian/jira/issue/search/SearchProvider.html

I can't make any test, but i think it should work for you if this is the problem just changing

def results = searchProvider.search(query, user, PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter())

with

def results = searchProvider.search(query,PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter())

Anyway, i'm getting out of my control zone so I may be wrong.

This is working despite the warning in deleteIssueNoEvent

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.search.SearchProvider
import com.atlassian.jira.jql.parser.JqlQueryParser
import com.atlassian.jira.web.bean.PagerFilter
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

def jqlQueryParser = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(JqlQueryParser.class)
def searchProvider = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(SearchProvider.class)
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()

ApplicationUser user = userManager.getUserByName("YOUR USER NAME")

def query = jqlQueryParser.parseQuery("YOUR JQL")
def results = searchProvider.search(query, user, PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter())

results.getIssues().each {documentIssue ->

Issue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject(documentIssue.id)
     issueManager.deleteIssueNoEvent(issue)

}
