How can I search in object comments in Insight (Assets) for Jira Service Management?

Question

Hi. I need to find specific objects in Insight (Assets) which contain a specific word in the comments. Is it possible to query the object comments, using IQL?

Tom Gustafsson · Answer

It is not possible to do IQL search which would filter objects based on comments.

One can do it using groovy script, for example:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

// Define the comment keyword to search for
def commentKeyword = "test comment"

// Initialize the ObjectFacade class to access comments
Class objectFacadeClass = ComponentAccessor.getPluginAccessor().getClassLoader().findClass("com.riadalabs.jira.plugins.insight.channel.external.api.facade.ObjectFacade")
def objectFacade = ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(objectFacadeClass)

// Retrieve all comments for the current object using findCommentBeans
def comments = objectFacade.findCommentBeans(object.id as int) // Cast object.id to int if necessary

// Check if any comment contains the target keyword
def hasTargetComment = comments.any { it.getComment().contains(commentKeyword) }

if (hasTargetComment) {
// Log the object ID and name to verify that we are targeting the correct object
log.info("Found object with ID ${object.id} and name '${object.name}' containing the target comment.")
}
