Restrict subtask issueType options based on it's parent issue issueType

Question

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to restrict available issue types on subtask creation, based on the issue type of it's parent issue. So, for example, for the issue type "Sample", on subtask creation, I want to have only one option "Issue subtask".
So far I've implemented the following script, as an initialiser function on behaviour, and then set it to issueType field:

import static com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueFieldConstants.ISSUE_TYPE
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

Issue parentIssue = underlyingIssue.parentObject

def constantsManager = ComponentAccessor.getConstantsManager()
def sampleIssueType = constantsManager.getAllIssueTypeObjects().find { it.name == "Sample" }

if(parentIssue.getIssueType().equals(sampleIssueType)){
    def issueSampleIssueType = constantsManager.getAllIssueTypeObjects().find { it.name == "Issue subtask" }

// In other cases, I'll need multiple options

getFieldById(ISSUE_TYPE).with {
        setFormValue(issueSampleIssueType.id)
        setReadOnly(true)
    }
}

However, it is not working as expected (all issue types are available when I create a subtask of "Sample")

Can someone please help me on that?

Thanks in advance,

Hi @[deleted] , this issue was marked as fixed by Adaptavist.
However, I didn't have time to test it yet. You can try something, using this documentation : https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/5.4.47/jira/recipes/behaviours/restricting-issue-types.html#_restricting_available_issue_types

And this is the issue https://productsupport.adaptavist.com/browse/SRJIRA-1010

I'll appreciate your feedback, after the test  =)

Good luck,
