Scriptrunner - Create subtask based on multi picker

Richard Duffy

Hi All

I am new to scriptrunner and trying to create my own script to auto create sub-task based on a custom field (multi picker). Our UMS works from our active directory. Here is what i have so far, any help would be appreciated?

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueFactory

def cfRIA = CustomFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Release Impact Assessor(s)")
def issue = com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
def issueObject = IssueFactory.getIssue()

Collection<ApplicationUser> users= (Collection) issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfRIA);

if(users != null)
{
for(i in 0..users.size()-1)
{
Object AssigneeValue = users.get(i).getName();

issueObject = IssueFactory.getIssue()
issueObject.setProjectObject(issue.getProjectObject())
issueObject.setIssueTypeId("10600")
issueObject.setParentId(issue.getId())

issueObject.setSummary(issue.getSummary())
issueObject.setAssigneeId(AssigneeValue)

subTask = issueManager.createIssue(authenticationContext.getUser(), issueObject)
subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(issue.getGenericValue(), subTask, authenticationContext.getUser())
i++
}

}

Hello @Richard Duffy

Is this postfunction?

Try this

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

def cfRIA = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Release Impact Assessor(s)")
def issueObject = ComponentAccessor.issueFactory.getIssue()
Collection<ApplicationUser> users= (Collection) issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfRIA);

if(users != null)
{
for(i in 0..users.size()-1)
    {
def AssigneeValue = users.get(i).getName();
        issueObject.setProjectObject(issue.getProjectObject())
        issueObject.setIssueTypeId("10600")
        issueObject.setParentId(issue.getId())

        issueObject.setSummary(issue.getSummary())
        issueObject.setAssigneeId(AssigneeValue)
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def subTask = issueManager.createIssueObject(ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.getLoggedInUser(), issueObject)
        ComponentAccessor.subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(issue, subTask, ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.getLoggedInUser())
        i++
    }

}

Thanks for the reply, yes this is for a post function.

I have edited my script using some of your code, now there i no errors. But when i run the script i get the following:

018-09-04 11:13:09,134 ERROR [workflow.ScriptWorkflowFunction]: Script function failed on issue: PILOT-263, actionId: 91, file: <inline script>
groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: static com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue.getCustomFieldValue() is applicable for argument types: (com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.ImmutableCustomField) values: [Release Impact Assessor(s)]
 at Script584.run(Script584.groovy:10)



Here is the script:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.config.SubTaskManager

def cfRIA = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Release Impact Assessor(s)")
def issueObject = ComponentAccessor.issueFactory.getIssue()
def issue = com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

Collection<ApplicationUser> users= (Collection) issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfRIA);

if(users != null)
{
 for(i in 0..users.size()-1)
 {
 def AssigneeValue = users.getAt(i).getName();
 issueObject.setProjectObject(issue.getProjectObject())
 issueObject.setIssueTypeId("10600")
 issueObject.setParentId(issue.getId())

 issueObject.setSummary(issue.getSummary())
 issueObject.setAssigneeId(AssigneeValue)

 def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
 def subTask = issueManager.createIssueObject(ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.getLoggedInUser(), issueObject)
 def SubTaskManager = ComponentAccessor.getSubTaskManager()
 def JiraAuthenticationContext = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext()

 ComponentAccessor.SubTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(issueObject, subTask, ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.getLoggedInUser())
 i++
 }

}

Thanks for the feedback

Hi @Mark Markov

I just figured out you cant write a script for Post Function in the console. When i put your script in the workflow it does work and creates a subtask. However when I enter multiple users in the multi pick field it still just creates 1 subtask, can you advise?

Thanks for the help

I got my script working for multiple users, here it is:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

def cfRIA = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Release Impact Assessor(s)")

Collection<ApplicationUser> users= (Collection) issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfRIA);

if(users != null)
{
 for(i in 0..users.size()-1)
 {
 Object AssigneeValue = users.get(i).getName();

 issueObject = ComponentAccessor.getIssueFactory().getIssue()
 issueObject.setProjectObject(issue.getProjectObject())
 issueObject.setIssueTypeId("10600")
 issueObject.setParentId(issue.getId())

issueObject.setSummary(issue.getSummary() + ' ' + users.get(i).getName() + ' - Impact Assessment')
 issueObject.setAssigneeId(AssigneeValue)
 def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
 def subTask = issueManager.createIssueObject(ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.getLoggedInUser(), issueObject)
 ComponentAccessor.subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(issue, subTask, ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.getLoggedInUser())
 i++
 }

}

There is one part of the script i dont really understand:

Collection<ApplicationUser> users= (Collection) issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfRIA);

Can you explain the Collection? Where can i find the Collections in -> https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/7.8.0/overview-summary.html

Thanks Again

Hi @Chris Annal

Thank you so much for your script. I've added two lines to copy the description too and it works perfectly. Kudos to you!

def description = parentIssue.getDescription()
[…]
newSubTask.setDescription(description)
