Moving an Issue between projects

Jackson Farnsworth

I'm attempting to move an issue between jira core projects using code I've seen from others who claim success. So far I get to invoking MoveIssueUpdateFields doExecute() method, but get a null pointer exception with the following stack trace:

java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

Same for me !

Jean-François FORGET_nvi3zd

Hi @Jackson Farnsworth ,

I got the same issue.

I think the error happen because the HttpServletRequest "request" on line 124 in AbstractIssueSelectAction.java is not provided when running this code.

And I am unable to find a way to get it

Did you find a way to fix this since you have posted this question?

Jackson Farnsworth

I think I had to use a work around, sorry to say I can't recall what I did, but I'm relatively certain I abandoned this path. I checked my saved scripts folder, and found this in it that might be a solved version. Give it a look over, and see if maybe it helps.

Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately the error is the same.

On my side i did a tiny progress by embedding the script in a script runner Rest Endpoint.

I grab the "HttpServletRequest" object provided by the Rest Endpoint and inject it into ActionContext.setRequest(requestObject).

This is throwing the following error:

[c.a.j.w.f.steps.requestcleanup.WebworkActionCleanupStep] Thread corrupted! ActionContext still references a HttpRequest. URL: 'https://<my_jira_base_url>/rest/scriptrunner/latest/custom/<my_rest_endpoint_name>'. Attempted to clean up: false

So i tried this to try to force the "cleanup":

GenericDispatcher gd = new GenericDispatcher("Create")
request.setAttribute("jira.webwork.generic.dispatcher",gd)
ActionContext.setRequest(request)

No more error, but the issue doesn't moved....

Jean-François FORGET_nvi3zd

Maybe I can try to summon @JamieA ?

(sorry)

Jean-François FORGET_nvi3zd

It took me the whole day, but I've finally made it works into a Script Runner Rest Endpoint with my Jira SW 8.3.2 and JSD 4.3.2.

Don't ask exactly how....

Note: My goal is a one shot move of all tickets from project A to B and delete project A, making its key available again.

+ This way I can bulk move with a mapping for "Customer Request Type" which is not possible with the "move" user interface.

If any expert see something dangerous or to be improved, please be my guest.

Hi Jean-François,

after more than 3 years, I found your solution to be still relevant as I don't see a really good way to deal with moving via Java API.

How did your solution hold up? Do you still use it? I admire your code, but at the same time, I didn't want to use it because it looks hacky with that Action context. Am I correct to assume you are imitating the stuff that Jira does natively when someone uses the GUI?

I opted to just create an issue copy and link it (probably with the Copy & Sync plugin).

Thanks,
Steffen
