Jira Server CreateSubTaskIssueLink Error

Shachar Ovadia

Hey guys, im creating subtask issue from a workflow transition, the issue is being created but it won't link the subtask to the parent issue, here is my code

def summary = getUser(members[currentMember])
def memberCapacityIssue = ComponentAccessor.issueFactory.getIssue();

memberCapacityIssue.projectObject = project;
memberCapacityIssue.issueTypeId = subTaskId;
memberCapacityIssue.summary = summary;
memberCapacityIssue.setParentId(issue.getId())
memberCapacityIssue.assignee = issue.getAssignee() == null ? user : issue.getAssignee();
memberCapacityIssue.reporter = issue.getReporter() == null ? user : issue.getReporter();
memberCapacityIssue = issueManager.createIssueObject(user, memberCapacityIssue);
subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(issue, memberCapacityIssue, user); this line is errored
//
issue.store()

Hello @Shachar Ovadia ,

issue store is deprecated, try to not use.

This code works for me. I've recommend to check the code in console before in transition.

For checking in console only it's needed that you uncomment the line that I've added with "def issue" and set the issue key of the issue that you are transitioning.

Best regards!

Hi !

Thank you for your response.

Im still Getting Errors,

This is my new code =>

// Managers
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def userSearchService = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(UserSearchService);
def constantsManager = ComponentAccessor.getConstantsManager()
def userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager();
def issueService = ComponentAccessor.getIssueService();
SubTaskManager subTaskManager = ComponentAccessor.getSubTaskManager();

Issue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("CAP-238")

// Finding the wanted issue Type (Sub)
final issueTypeName = 'Team Member Capacity' //set here your subtaks type name
def subtaskIssueTypes = constantsManager.allIssueTypeObjects.findAll { it.subTask }
def subTaskIssueType = subtaskIssueTypes.findByName(issueTypeName)

def project = ComponentAccessor.projectManager.getProjectObjByKey("CAP");
def user = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.loggedInUser;
def currentEpicStatus = issue.getStatus();

// issue fields
def epicSummary = issue.summary;
def epicDescription = issue.description;

def relatedScrumTeam = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_14053");
def membersInScrumTeam = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_14007");
MutableIssue scrumTeamIssue = issueManager.getIssueObject(issue.getCustomFieldValue(relatedScrumTeam).toString());
def members = scrumTeamIssue.getCustomFieldValue(membersInScrumTeam) as Collection;

for(def currentMember = 0; currentMember < members.size(); currentMember ++) {

def summary = getUser(members[currentMember])
def memberCapacityIssue = ComponentAccessor.issueFactory.getIssue();

def issueInputParameters = issueService.newIssueInputParameters().with
{
setProjectId(issue.projectObject.id)
setIssueTypeId(subTaskIssueType.id)
setSummary(summary);
setReporterId(getUserId(members[currentMember]))
}

def validationResult = issueService.validateSubTaskCreate(user, issue.id, issueInputParameters)
assert validationResult.valid : validationResult.errorCollection

def issueResult = issueService.create(user, validationResult)
assert issueResult.valid : issueResult.errorCollection

def subtask = issueResult.issue

if (subtask){
Issue subtaskIssue = issueManager.getIssueObject(subtask.toString());
Issue parent = issueManager.getIssueObject(issue.toString())
log.warn(subtaskIssue.getIssueType())
log.warn(parent.issueType)
subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(parent, subtaskIssue, user)
}
}

Now, intresting part, the parent issuetype style is null, while the created issuetype style is jira_subtask.

i guess the errors (Same as before) coming from this ^

Hello,

could you log before "subTaskManager.createSubTask"

subtaskIssue.getKey()

parent.getKey()

and tell us the result, please?

Best regards.

Shachar Ovadia

Hi,

As expected i got the Created subtask key, and the parent issue key

2021-08-30 18:04:36,508 WARN [runner.ScriptBindingsManager]: CAP-238 (Parent)

2021-08-30 18:04:36,509 WARN [runner.ScriptBindingsManager]: CAP-543 (sub task)
