How to add a component in a post function with Script Runner

[Chris Lange]

We are using the Jira Cloud version including script runner. 

The goal is that all created issues in one project are cloned to another project ("second project"). 

Cloning issues with a ScriptRunner post function via workflow is really easy, but there's currently one thing I am struggeling with:

The second project requires a component in the creation workflow. This behavior should not be changed. Therefore the post function within the first project has to set a (static) component when creating a new issues in the second project. 

I researched a lot about this topic but so far nothing helpful popped up :/

Any help on this is appreciated!

Thanks!

Rather straight forward :D

issueInput.fields.components += [[
name: "Name of your component"
]]
