How to send notification when Story is assigned to Epic

Matthew Ford

I am not familiar with this scripting

Can someone help me with:

create a scriptrunner listener for an "issue created" event,

and in the listener
check if there is an "Epic-Story Link" type link, if yes
get the Epic linked to the issue
get the watchers of the Epic
send a mail to these watchers 

Unless you have an alternative solution.

There is currently a bug (https://productsupport.adaptavist.com/browse/SRJIRA-2690) with the "Send custom email" listener so this will not work correctly.

When the bug is fixed though, this is how you would accomplish your goal.

• Create a "Send a custom email" listener and have it fire on IssueLinkCreatedEvent
• Type "Watchers" in the "To issue fields" screen in order to send an email to all the watchers on that issue
• For the condition script use:

def issue1 = event.getIssueLink().getSourceObject()
def issue2 = event.getIssueLink().getDestinationObject()

issue1.getIssueType().getName() == "Epic" && issue2.getIssueType().getName() == "Story" 

This will fire every time a new link is created between two issues, check if its a story linked to an epic, and if it is send an email to all the watchers.
