Webservice Dynamic Multilabel looping with Jira Rest API

SPadalkar

Hi,

I am trying to create multiple Jira tickets based on the multiple selections made my the user in the confiforms form. I am using Webservice Dynamic Multilabel to pull the dropdown options from an attached spreadsheet. (looking at a few posts, it might be better to pull from Jira createMeta API. But that I will try later)

I have velocity code in the Applink body to loop through the selection and generate payload dynamically for one ticket each. But foreach doesn't seem to work for me. It simply skips the whole body.

I also don't fully understand the difference between Webservice Dynamic Multilabel and Websrvice Multiselect. I got Webservice Dynamic Multilabel working so continued using it.

#foreach ($r in $Requestor) $r.fullName #end

<table>
#foreach( $customer in $customerList )
    <tr><td>$foreach.count</td><td>$customer.Name</td></tr>
--I tried building the Jira payload here--
#end
</table>

You cannot have multiple (JSON) payloads in the IFTTT. Well you can construct whatever you want but processed body will be submitted just once. Using the configuration you have

Differences between Multi-label/Multi-select - in visual appearance mainly. Multi-select also allows you to show a label, but save the "id". Multi-label stores exactly what you see

Thanks for your quick response!

I am trying to generate a single payload with multiple Issue updates using Jira bulk API if possible. I want to create a new ticket for each value of FArea. I have used the "/rest/api/latest/issue/bulk" endpoint to create multiple Jira ticket in the past. But here I need to loop through the selected values.

{
"issueUpdates":[
#foreach ($r in $FArea)
{
"fields":{
"project":{
"key":"JSTEST"
},
"summary":"[entry.Outcome]",
"description":"*Support:* [entry.Outcome.escapeJavaScript] #foreach ($r in $FArea) $r #end",
"customfield_30984":"$r",
"customfield_27817":{
"value":"No"
},
"customfield_12780":"[entry.JiraEpic.key]",
"issuetype":{
"id":"9"
}
}
}
#if( $foreach.hasNext ) , #end
#end
]
}

What do you have in "$FArea" variable?

Also, make sure that Velocity templating is NOT disabled in your instance by Confluence administrators

Also, ConfiForms uses/relies on the Velocity version used (and provided) by Atlassian - it is a 1.6.3.something (depends on your Confluence version)... so there is no $foreach.hasNext

FArea is a Confiforms form field of type Websrvice Dynamic Multi label Dropdown. Velocity code works with simple variable setting etc. For example I set a link to epic in a variable and print it in the ticket successfully.

The test code #foreach ($r in $FArea) - $r - #end is currently printing the response below. I have selected 3 items in the dropdown.

org.dom4j.tree.DefaultElement@4c39c005 [Element: <value attributes: []/>]

Also the following line of code works as expected. It sets up the values in the Jira dropdown correctly.

"customfield_30984":[[entry.FArea.asArrayOfKVPairs(value)]],
