On Create Issue: set the Description Based on the Component (like a Template) - Scriptrunner

[Shannon Davis]

I am trying to use ScriptRunner behaviors to set up a default description based on the selected component.  I have configured the Behavior and associated it to a Project and Issue Type.  

Initially I was using the Initializer as in the example, but that sets a Default Description before the Component is set.

So I moved my script to the Component field, assuming that when I select a Component, the description will update.  That is NOT what is happening.  The script doesn't appear to run when the component field is changed.

Questions:

Is this possible? (on the Create Issue screen, having the Description update based on the Component selection)

If possible, is this the correct way to accomplish?

If possible, how does this script look to you?

Hi Nir,

Thank you for your reply.

I've merged 2 script into 1 but it still doesn't work.

However, I notice that if I don't do fast-track (script runner) for this transition. Everything will work perfectly. Once I do fast track, I will have this problem immediately.

I believer something is related to the fast track.

So seems like you answer to your-self :)

Seems like the fast-track not performing the post-function script (and maybe all other post-functions you have in this step)

Hi @Joe Bkk 

Why are you creating this as 2 different post functions?

It might be that the sub-task not showing yet because the process of the workflow transition not finished.

I would suggest to it all in one post-function, no reason to make 2, specially if 1 depend the other
