How to add a record to MovedIssueKeyStore in Groovy?

[Daniel Witkowski]

I wonder how should I go about using method recordMovedIssueKey from this:

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/7.2.1/com/atlassian/jira/issue/util/MovedIssueKeyStore.html

Basically, I want to programmaticaly move the issue in groovy from one project to another. I have implemented copying all the info that I want from the original issue to the new one, the only thing left is redirecting the url address with the old issue key to the url address with the new key. I have the old issue key and new issue id, but have no idea how to go about it. Thanks for help.

I managed to do it with this code:

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.MovedIssueKeyStore

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def keystore = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(MovedIssueKeyStore)

keystore.recordMovedIssueKey(oldIssueKey,newIssueId)

oldIssueKey is the key of issue to be moved (the value you can see in the url when you view the issue)

newIssueId is the unique value of the cloned issue (Obtained with getId() method on Issue object)

the old issue need to be deleted in order for url redirection to happen
