How can I retrieve all issues/issue keys for a project?

Rohan Weston

Hi there,

 

I'm pushing data into Jira from other sources.

 

I need to have the ability to check if an issue (identified by the issue key) already exists, and if it does then I don't want to override it.

 

The issue here (pardon the pun) is that I know the project name and key, but I don't know the individual issue Id's. The API only allows you to retrieve an issue by ID, as opposed to a list. I need to pull all of them down within the scope of a project.

 

Please advise? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

It would be like this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
import com.atlassian.jira.jql.parser.JqlQueryParser;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.search.SearchProvider;
import com.atlassian.jira.web.bean.PagerFilter;


def findIssues(String jqlQuery) {
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.issueManager
def user = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.user
def jqlQueryParser = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(JqlQueryParser.class)
def searchProvider = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(SearchProvider.class)

def query = jqlQueryParser.parseQuery(jqlQuery)
def results = searchProvider.search(query, user, PagerFilter.unlimitedFilter)
results.issues.collect 
{ issue -> issueManager.getIssueObject(issue.id) } 
}

def user = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.user
def jqlQuery = "project = \"projectkey\""
def issues = findIssues(jqlQuery)
issues.each{it -> 

// your code

}
