Update all sub tasks' custom field when a custom field is updated on its parent issue

NBE_07dzyu

Hello,

Our "Story" issue type has a custom field named "Scheduled Release". Whenever this field is updated, I'd like it to be synced into all of the issue's sub tasks (the issue also has custom sub tasks types) which in turn also have a custom field named "Scheduled Release". I figured I should have a custom listener with the "CustomFieldUpdatedEvent" event, but I can't figure out the exact inline script I need to add.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi @NBE,

Please have a look on similar article and try substituting with your custom field.

Thanks,

Hello @NBE,

I wrote a script for you. I'd appreciate it if you let me know the result after trying. Feel free to ask if you have question about the code. Hope this helps.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.field.CustomFieldUpdatedEvent
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

if(event.getCustomFieldId() == "Scheduled Release ID" && issue.getIssueTypeId() == "story issuetype id"){
def subtasks          = issue.getSubTaskObjects()
def customfield       = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("Scheduled Release ID")
def scheduledRelease  = customfield.getValue(issue)

for (Issue subtask : subtasks){
        customfield.updateValue(null, subtask , new ModifiedValue(subtask.getCustomFieldValue(customfield), scheduledRelease), new DefaultIssueChangeHolder());
    }
}

Hi @Orkun Gedik

Thank you very much for taking the time to help me.

Pasting your code into the inline script I get a couple of errors, all of them in this line:

customfield.updateValue(null, subtask , new ModifiedValue(subtask.getCustomFieldValue(customfield), scheduledRelease), new DefaultIssueChangeHolder());

unable to resolve class ModifiedValue
unable to resolve class DefaultIssueChangeHolder

So I tried importing these classes:

Importing com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder fixed the 2nd problem.
Importing com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue not only did not fix the problem, but also caused a whole lot more errors in other places in the code (can you see it in your jira instance?)

Your help is much appreciated.

You are welcome @NBE, can you share your error logs please.

@Orkun Gedik

No error logs... it fails on the validation of the inline script.

Thanks again!
