Jira Script Runner create sub task button on view/edit issue screen

chris.spacagna

I've searched previous posts for this but only found ones from over a year ago which may be irrelevant now so I am asking the question again.

We would like to see if its possible to add new buttons to the edit/view issue screen for creating sub-tasks of a certain sub-task type.

Hi Chris.

So, the short answer to this would be "yes, but it might be very very hard".

Long answer:

Our scripted fragments allow you to insert HTML, or JS code in mostly all parts of the JIRA UI, allowing customisation. In order to do this however, you would need to plan very carefully what you want, because I am not entirely sure on how this would work.

For example, you go to the edit issue screen and you click that button: what does that do? Does it save your changes? Does it discard them? Does it redirect you to a new page? Or does it open a new frame?

This would need some extensive development.

Cheers!

Thanks Daniel, we would not consider extensive development to put this in so we will not attempt this. Thanks for saving us the time trying to do this.

@Daniel Yelamos [Adaptavist] I have my own question related to this

I want to have a transition and on this transition should trigger the built in "Create Sub task" under the More button in the issue.

Reason when i use the built in create sub-task in script runner this just works like clone and it does not meet my requirement.

When i have a parent issue with custom fields on the screen and i use the same screen when creating a sub-task from transition , when i enter the fields on clicking the transition and entering the fields, the fields in parent issue (updated with new custom-fields values) but in subtask not visible

Parent issue

custom-date A = 1000

custom-field B = 5

Sub-task issue

custom-date A (not visible)

custom-field B (not visible)

I want to have the same behavior when i create sub-task from the More -> Create Sub-task in the view screen so that when i click on a transition and enter the fields on the screen i should get below results . Describe below meanwhile the parent issue has already been created.

Parent issue

custom-date A = 1000

custom-field B = 5

Sub-task issue

custom-date A = 2000

custom-field B = 7

An easier solution would be great!

Thanks!
