ScriptRunner Behaviour to limit or restrict link types

Chase Brown

I'm trying to limit the available link types within one of my projects to the specific ones they will be using. 

See Code below:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.link.IssueLink

def list = {"Blocks", "Relates"]

def allowedLinks = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager.issueLinkType(list.contains(it.name)){
    collectEntries{
    [(it.id):it.name]
}

getFieldById("issuelinks-linktype").setFormValue(list)

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong... help?

Hi Chase

I wrote an example Scriptrunner Behaviour script here that allows you to restrict the available link directions that show on the create/edit and transition screens for the "Linked Issues" field.

Use it as a Behaviour initialiser script.

I think the logic could be improved for getting the allowed links as I do not really like how I am combining the 2 maps at the moment but it works for now.

I will improve it if I get a chance at a later date.

 

Note: To see the names of your outward and inward links, hit gg on the keyboard and search for "issue linking"
