ScriptRunner Cloud - Copy Asset Text Area field to an Issue description as Jira Wiki Markup

Luka Urushadze_wdg21f

Hi everyone,

I have a ScriptRunner Script which is creating issues based on assets. My problem is that the asset text area field is formatted as an HTML:

Therefore they're also being copied to Issue Descriptions as HTML text without formatting, instead of Jira Wiki Markup.

I need to convert these from HTML to Jira Wiki Markup within this ScriptRunner Cloud script, but I couldn't find a way to do that.

Anyone has done this so far?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Luka,

take a look at converter "WysiwygConverter.convertXHtmlToWikiMarkup"

see Documentation: https://developer.atlassian.com/server/confluence/html-to-markup-conversion-for-the-rich-text-editor/

 

Usage How To:

import com.atlassian.renderer.wysiwyg.converter.DefaultWysiwygConverter;

String fromInsight = "<p><strong>Population</strong></p><ul><li>2021 estimate:&nbsp;<strong>45,605,826</strong></li></ul><p><strong>Area</strong></p><ul><li>Total:&nbsp;<strong>2,780,400&nbsp;km2</strong></li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p>"
DefaultWysiwygConverter defaultWysiwygConverter = new DefaultWysiwygConverter()

String wikiMarkup = defaultWysiwygConverter.convertXHtmlToWikiMarkup(fromInsight);

I found it here: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/App-Central-questions/Convert-HTML-tags-in-description-field-when-copying-from-Insight/qaq-p/1805629

 

hope this helps
