Get all JIRA comments to a scripted field.

Question

Hi All,

I'm trying pull all JIRA comments to a scripted field using scriptrunner.

I'm able to pull all comments but they are not in a sequence. How can we break each comment by author name?

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.Comment
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.CommentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
def commentManager = ComponentAccessor.getCommentManager()
def comment = commentManager.getComments (issue)
return (comment?.authorFullName + comment?.body)

TIA!!

Ah, that would suggest you have too many comments to fit inside a simple block of text.  You'll need to define a bigger type of variable.

The code I gave there is just to drag the raw information out, it doesn't try to format it.

You'll want to add line or paragraph breaks to $item to format it better.  I would expect it to come out in date order though, if it does not, then you'll need to add a sort to the "each" part.
