Programatically Update the Sprint Field in Issues

Joe Zangara

Hi All, 

I have a list of closed issues where users forgot to set the sprint fielld.

Each issue in the list belongs to a different sprint.

Those Sprints are also closed.

I fixed the problem going forward by imposing a required field validator on Sprint in a workflow transition.  Now I just need to fix the old data.

The only way I know of to make this update is to use bulk edit one-by-one for each issue and set the Sprint field to equal the Sprint ID.

 

I was hoping that this could be done programatically.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

You can try to build a custom script to change this 

You can execute it in built in scripts (script runner) or add it as workflow post function and execute as a bulk action on closed issues
