how selected issue from issue picker field should get attached in Issue Links of parent issue

RSP

Hi,

There is multiple issue picker field on screen where I select multiple issues. I need those selected issue to be available in Issue Links.

How can I write listener for this on issue creation and issue update event?

Hi @RSP

For your requirement, since you are using the Listeners, you can do something like this:-

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def issue = event.issue

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.issueLinkManager
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.issueManager
def loggedInUser = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.loggedInUser

def sampleIssuePicker = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName('Sample Issue Picker').first()
def sampleIssuePickerValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(sampleIssuePicker).toString()

def issueIds = issueManager.getIssueIdsForProject(10100)
def issues = issueManager.getIssueObjects(issueIds)

issues.each { sourceIssue ->
    if(sampleIssuePickerValue.contains(sourceIssue.key)) {
        issueLinkManager.createIssueLink(issue.id, sourceIssue.id, 10003, 1, loggedInUser)
    }
}

Please note, the sample working code above is not 100% exact to your environment. Hence, you will need to make the required modifications.

Below is a print screen of the Listener configuration:-

To determine what type of Link you want to use, you will need to visit the Issue Linking page as shown below:-

Once you have decided which link type you wish to use, you will need to move your mouse over the Edit link.

You will then see the Issue Link's ID. this is the ID you will need to use in this line of code:-

issueLinkManager.createIssueLink(issue.id, sourceIssue.id, 10003, 1, loggedInUser)

Below are few test print screens:-

1) When the issue is being created, two linked issues are added as shown below:-

2) Once the issue is created, the Issue Link is automatically created as shown below:-

3) Similarly, if an issue has already been created, and the links are included as shown below:-

 The issue link will also be created as shown below:-

 

I hope this helps to answer your question.

 

Thank you and Kind Regards,
