ScriptRunner/Groovy Cannot invoke method getSprintsForView() on null object

[ludwigbayer]

I'm attempting to use a ScriptRunner/Groovy script to give me a list of active and open (in progress & future) sprints in a specific board. For some reason, whenever I use the getSprintsForView() method, it fails and errors "cannot invoke method getSprintsForView() on null object".

The odd thing is that I check if the view is null, and the view seems to work just fine with other methods (like getOpenSprintsAndBacklogProjects. 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
import com.atlassian.greenhopper.service.rapid.view.RapidViewService;
import com.atlassian.greenhopper.service.rapid.RapidViewQueryService;
import com.atlassian.greenhopper.model.rapid.RapidView;

import com.atlassian.greenhopper.service.sprint.Sprint;
import com.atlassian.greenhopper.service.sprint.SprintManager;

def sprintManager = ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(SprintManager.class);
def rapidViewService = ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(RapidViewService.class);
def rapidViewQueryService = ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(RapidViewQueryService.class);

board_id = 89L;

def sprints = [];
def sprints_two = [];


def view = rapidViewService.getRapidView(user, board_id).getValue(); 

if (view != null)
{
  sprints = rapidViewQueryService.getOpenSprintsAndBacklogProjects(user, view).getValue().left();  
  sprints_two = sprintManager.getSprintsForView(view).getValue();
}

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Vikrant,

Thank you so much for the assistance. It worked when we had the script in initializer.

Hello @Vikrant Yadav , the method suggested also works for jira cloud ?

Hi @Charlie  This method is for JIRA Server and JIRA DC version. For JIRA Cloud, this doesn't work. 

For jira colud, you can create Custom field and set Default value of that field. 

Thanks
