How to set issue links through groovy in script postfunction?

miller j

Hello,

 I am trying to set the issue links though post functions using groovy. I would like to create the links based on a custom field value from the current issue to the new issue.

def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject('<customfield_id>')

def customFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)

def newIssue = 'abc-123'

if(customFieldValue  = 1){

Link blocks

}

else {

Link clones

}

 

Thanks a mill.

Here's how you do it.

def currentUser = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()
def linkMgr = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager()
linkMgr.createIssueLink(11111, 22222, 33333, 1, currentUser)

/*where 11111, 22222 and 33333 are source issue id, destination issue id and issue link type id respectively */
/*currentUser is the link creator, so feel free to change it to any other Application User object*/
