Impact analysis for planned changes in configurations?

Ingo Wenke_nmfof8

Hi all,

 

while maintaining the JSM and JSW ecosystem, we would like to keep the system clean and lean. 

We would like to check where filters and issue types are used to make an impact analysis.

E.g. we have an issue type named "Bananas" and we now want to rename this issue type to "Fruits". So we need to know which filters and boards uses this issue type name.

Story:

As an admin

I would like to see where issue type names and filters (filter names) are used, 

to know the impact of a change to such an object.

 

Is such an impact analysis tool available, maybe on the market place?

Hi @Ingo Wenke 

This is quite interesting question you had there. To my knowledge I do not know of such an app. However a workaround could include:

• A JSON export of all filters with their JQL
• Xlsx process of the exported data

If such workaround will suit your need then use the following endpoint to get all filters:

https://YOURDOMAIN.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/filter/search?expand=JQL

If you have more that 100 filters, then you have to re run the above endpoint for the next page etc.

After you have your JSON exports, pass them on a converter from JSON to CSV (like this one)

Download the exported csv on your excel and process the jql column, after filtering it with "issuetype".
