Is it possible to link issues via wf post function Script?

Hi All,

I have 4 status in PROJECT 1-
Open -> In Progress -> In Review -> Resolved.

Step 1

I have a ticket in PROJECT 1; when the ticket is moved from Open -> In Progress; it automatically creates a ticket in PROJECT 2 and links to PROJECT 1 ticket with link type 'has dependency'.

Step 2

Now, when the above created ticket in PROJECT 2 is cancelled, the PROJECT 1 ticket(which was in IN PROGRESS status) moves to IN REVIEW, which in turn creates another ticket in PROJECT 2(but with different summary, I am setting the summary and description via scripting).

My question: is it possible to link (type - 'is caused by') the ticket created in Project 2(Step 2: IN REVIEW transition) to the ticket in PROJECT 2 which was cancelled(created when IN PROGRESS status) before in Project 2(based on summary), via post function or JIRA automation.

I tried via automation but no luck. If this is possible can via scripting can some one help!

Thank you.

Hi @Harsh ,

you can use a scripted post function and use JIRA API https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/8.1.0/index.html?com/atlassian/jira/issue/link/IssueLinkManager.html

Yep, if you have Scriptrunner, these are both possible.

The first is surprisingly easy if you have a recent version of SR (one with HAPI capabilities)

From memory:

<span>// Create a new issue</span>
<span>def</span><span> newIssue </span><span>=</span><span> Issues</span><span>.</span><span>create</span><span>(</span><span>'projectKey'</span><span>,</span> <span>'issueType'</span><span>)</span> <span>{</span>
    <span>setSummary</span><span>(</span><span>'New issue'</span><span>)</span>
<span>}</span>

<span>// Link the new issue to the existing issue</span>
<span>issue</span><span>.</span><span>link</span><span>(</span><span>'linkType'</span><span>,</span><span> newIssue</span><span>)</span>

The second is a bit more involved, but you should be able to find snippets and examples to help you with it in https://library.adaptavist.com

Hi @Fabio Racobaldo _Catworkx_

Thanks for the reply. I did try but it works when you are creating a issue in one transition.

It is not working in my scenario. If you have any test script that fits the scenario would be a great help.

Thanks again!

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-

For the first one I had already implemented the logic and it works perfectly, since it's a straight default post function (clone funtion in wf).

Since for step 2: the requirement, is to link the issue which is getting created when it goes to in review status to the ticket which was triggered in step 1 and is cancelled.

Thanks again for the help. Any suggestions would be a great help. I think it's a bit tricky.
