Need Help with Assets Field Data Copied over to Sub-Tasks

Sriharsha_zl2nju

Hi,

I'm using the below script to create sub-tasks using Automation and working fine. The issue I'm facing here is that I'm unable to copy the value of Software Sub-Product relevant values based on the Software Products like like Adobe, Microsoft. Adobe has Software Sub-Products like Animate and Microsoft has Copilot. Each Sub-task is getting created for each Adobe and Microsoft. I want to copy Animate under Software Sub-Product field in the Adobe sub-task and Copilot under Software Sub-Product field for Microsoft Sub-task.

Both Software Product and Software Sub-Product Fields are Asset object field (multi-select).

Here is the Script I'm using - 

 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueFactory

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField

import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder

// Define the IDs for the custom fields

Long softwareVendorFieldId = 31701L // Multi-select asset object field for "Software - Vendor"

Long installForFieldId = 32006L // Custom field ID for "Install For"

Long softwareSubProductFieldId = 31702L

// Retrieve the current issue from the context

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

MutableIssue parentIssue = issueManager.getIssueObject(issue.id) // Ensure issue is available

// Fetch the custom field for "Software - Vendor" and "Install For"

CustomField softwareVendorField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject(softwareVendorFieldId)

CustomField installForField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject(installForFieldId)

CustomField softwareSubProductField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject(softwareSubProductFieldId)

def selectedOptions = parentIssue.getCustomFieldValue(softwareVendorField) as List

def installForValues = parentIssue.getCustomFieldValue(installForField) as List

def softwareSubProductValues = parentIssue.getCustomFieldValue(softwareSubProductField) as List

if (selectedOptions) {

    // Log each option to inspect its type and create a subtask for each

    selectedOptions.each { option ->

        log.info("Selected option: " + option.toString())

        createSubTaskForOption(parentIssue, option, softwareVendorField, installForField, softwareSubProductField, installForValues, softwareSubProductValues)

    }

}

void createSubTaskForOption(MutableIssue parentIssue, def option, CustomField softwareVendorField, CustomField installForField, CustomField softwareSubProductField, def installForValues, def softwareSubProductValues) {

    def user = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.getLoggedInUser()

    IssueFactory issueFactory = ComponentAccessor.getIssueFactory()

    IssueManager issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

    // Create a new subtask instance

    MutableIssue subTask = issueFactory.getIssue()

    // Assuming option is a simple string (adjust as necessary based on logging)

    subTask.setSummary("Software Request: " + option)  // Subtask summary based on the option value

    subTask.setIssueTypeId("22500") // Replace "5" with your subtask issue type ID

    subTask.setParentObject(parentIssue)

    subTask.setProjectObject(parentIssue.getProjectObject())

    subTask.setReporter(parentIssue.getReporter())

    // Copy the "Software - Vendor" field value (current option) to the subtask

    subTask.setCustomFieldValue(softwareVendorField, [option]) // Only set the current option

    // Copy the "Install For" field value to the subtask (copying all values from the parent)

    if (installForValues) {

        subTask.setCustomFieldValue(installForField, installForValues)

    }

    if (softwareSubProductValues) {

        subTask.setCustomFieldValue(softwareSubProductField, softwareSubProductValues)

    }

    // Store the new subtask issue

    issueManager.createIssueObject(user, subTask)

    // Use SubTaskManager to link the subtask to the parent issue

    def subTaskManager = ComponentAccessor.getSubTaskManager()

    subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(parentIssue, subTask, user)

    log.info("Subtask '${subTask.summary}' created and linked successfully.")

}

def filterRelevantSubProducts(def softwareSubProductValues, def option) {

    return softwareSubProductValues.findAll { subProduct ->

        subProduct.toString().contains(option.toString())

    }

}

Thanks, in advance! Can anyone help?

@Ram Kumar Aravindakshan _Adaptavist_  - can you please help me

Hi @Sriharsha

Based on what condition do you want the Sub-Tasks to be created?

I am asking this because instead of using Automation to create the Subtasks, you can do it directly via ScriptRunner. When the Subtask is created, it can automatically pass the Asset value to the field.

I am looking forward to your feedback and clarification.

Thank you and Kind regards,
Ram
