Receive Error "Cannot Get Property Issue Type on null object on script runner behavior scripts

Nannette Mori

Script Runner Version: 6.56.0

Jira Data Center 8.22.6

We have created several Behavior Script using Script Runner.  The Behavior Scripts work but in the atlassian.log I am seeing the error below on the "Create Issue" event.

Script failed on issue (Create Issue) Cannot get Property Issue type  on null object

How do we fix this?

Hi @Nannette Mori 

 

What is the script causing this issue ? You seems to use the function getIssueTypeObject or getIssueTypeId on an issue object that is not defined.

 

You should use the code below instead.

<span>getIssueContext</span><span>(</span><span>)</span><span>.</span>issueType<span>.</span>name

At issue creation the issue you are creating do not exist yet, context does. 

Regards
