Unleash your scripting superpowers with ScriptRunner's new in-app treasure trove! 🔥 📚

[#1]

Hey Atlassian Community 👋

Are you that Jira admin, overwhelmed by learning a new method of achieving automations? You’d heard such great things about ScriptRunner but you’re currently feeling your way around in the dark, while a never-ending stream of tasks from your users comes in like a flock of bats streaking by? Your backpack is heavy with the automations  you need to create and maintain, while fumbling with a map to help you find and deliver the solutions. The pressure to uncover new efficiencies and provide a high quality service is high!

Eager to find inspiration and move forward, you embark on a quest for script examples and use case ideas. As a lone explorer, there's a lot to take in: the internet is full of ideas but what you really need is a sidekick, or some kind of magic map! ScriptRunner! Help!

Jira Admin - the scripting explorer 

Just as it feels hopeless, and you're about to give up, you remember a rumour you heard once. A legendary cavern, filled with inspirational gold and where answers can be found by those bold enough to seek them. Armed with fresh determination, you follow the whispers of the ScriptRunner enthusiasts until you find it: the Adaptavist library.

It’s a treasure trove of example ScriptRunner scripts for Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket. Where you can filter and search to find an example script that matches your needs. Everything they said was true: what you need to get on the right path is here.

Never again will you have to start from scratch with a script: you can dive straight into the action! Copy to add to your pack and travel back to your instance, paste and you're the hero your Jira needs! 

But… you think to yourself as you turn to leave …what if I can't find my way back here? 

X marks the spot: a closer destination 

Dear adventurer, there's another rumour circulating. That it's possible to get access to this treasure trove by a simpler road. What if you didn’t have to go exploring? What if you could leave your backpack at home and reach what you need from inside your Jira instance? No longer needing to open a new browser tab to find a starter script: you could have hundreds of scripts right there, beside your editor, ready to adapt, combine and customise. 

You open your map again. There's a new X marking a new spot. A new destination, right within your own instance of ScriptRunner.

Script examples from library.adaptavist.com are now integrated directly into the app 

You’ve been granted access to the entire treasure trove of library.adaptavist.com directly from any script editor in ScriptRunner for Jira, ScriptRunner for Confluence and ScriptRunner for Bitbucket Data Center. 

Share this secret with those who need it most.

That's right: introducing the Example Scripts modal with hundreds of script examples in-app. With all examples pre-filtered for your convenience to match the tool you’re using, you'll only see Jira scripts in Jira, clearing away the noise so you can get to what you need.
