How to set Issue Picker value in Behaviours

[Paul]

Hi,

I need to set a value (another issue key, e.g. ABC-123) for an Issue Picker field in Behaviours.

How can I do it?

Thanks,

Paul

The below script will delete all the subtasks associated with the issue that fired the listener event.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.issueManager
def currentUser = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.loggedInUser

// Get a list of the current issue's subtasks
def subtasks = issue.getSubTaskObjects()

// Loop through all the subtasks and delete them
subtasks.each {
    issueManager.deleteIssue(currentUser, it, EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_DELETED, false)
}

Hi @Roland Holban (Adaptavist)

How would i change the code to only delete subtasks that begin with the word "Test" instead of deleting all subtasks?

E.g. I have subtasks such as Test Design, Test Execution, and i only want those subtasks to be deleted.

Inside the loop, you could add an if statement that checks whether the first 4 letters of the subtask's summary is "Test"

subtasks.each {
    if (it.summary.substring(0,4) == "Test") {
        issueManager.deleteIssue(currentUser, it, EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_DELETED, false)
    }
}

This script will delete all the subtasks associated with the issue that fired the event.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.issueManager
def currentUser = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.loggedInUser

// Get a list of the current issue's subtasks
def subtasks = issue.getSubTaskObjects()

// Loop through all the subtasks and delete them
subtasks.each {
    issueManager.deleteIssue(currentUser, it, EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_DELETED, false)
}

The last portion of the code shouldn't all be commented out. The Atlassian Community code block feature is really bad.
