How to retrieve a custom field values from several linked issues and present it as list in one scripted field?

Eitan Gur

Hi

I'm trying to activate a scripted field that will retrieve a custom field value from several linked issues (different link types - Parent of, Child of etc..) and present the scripted field values as a list of values (as a string/list).

Trying the following code which gives me only one of the wanted values (the value from the last linked issue):

 

import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

def Issue issue = issue

def user = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager().getUserByName("admin").getDirectoryUser()
def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.issueLinkManager

def linkCollection = issueLinkManager.getLinkCollection(issue, user)

if (linkCollection && linkCollection.allIssues) {
def CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_xxxxx")
def linkedIssue = linkCollection.allIssues.first()
return linkedIssue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
}

1. You miss a brasket into the very end of an issue.
2. Try using methods to get value. E.g. linkCollection.getAllIssues(), but not allIssues

To speed up development see this:https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/32982259

I modify it a little to get value from first linked issue into list.

import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue


def Issue issue = issue;
def user = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager().getUserByName("vzverev").getDirectoryUser()
def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.issueLinkManager
def linkCollection = issueLinkManager.getLinkCollection(issue, user)
if (linkCollection && linkCollection.getAllIssues()) {    
        def CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
        def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_xxxx")        
    	for(Issue curLinkedissue: linkCollection.getAllIssues()){       	 
           	return curLinkedissue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
    }
}
