Previous Epic Link

Dan27

Hello,

There is an option to get the previous 'Epic Link' of an issue? (by post function).

I need the Epic Link that was the parent of an issue (for example-story) before it was changed.

Maybe there is an option to get the 'Epic Link' history list of a specific issue ?

 

Thanks , Daniel

Hello @Dan27

You can get it via changeHistoryManager like this

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

// Uncomment this to test is script console and place correct issue key
//MutableIssue issue = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject("TEST-1")

def changeHistoryManager = ComponentAccessor.getChangeHistoryManager()
def history = changeHistoryManager.getChangeItemsForField(issue, "Epic Link")
if (history.size()>1){
def prevousEpicLink = history.last().fromString
    log.error("prevous epic: ${prevousEpicLink}")
}
