Jira Rule to Collect Isueses Components in Fix Version.

[Arseni Vasilevski]

Hello, experts!

I want to create the following Cloud Jira Rule:

1. I open one of the tickets in Jira Release. 
2. Go to Automatisation and run Manual Rule "get components" 
3. Jira identified the current Fix Version (from the current.issue)
4. Find all tickets with Fix Version = Fix Version of the current issue.
5. Go throw all the tickets with this Fix Version and collect All Components.
6. Remove duplicates and Put all components in the comment below the ticket. 

Context:

We use Jira Components as GitLab Repositories' names. It helps us to collect all Repositores that need to be Deployed to Prod in this Fix Version. 

Usually, I go to the issue navigator and manually collect all components then inform DevOps, but it leads to risks of human error and duplicates. 

Spend 3 hours playing with Smart Values and Lookup table, but unfortunately failed even with ChatGPT.

Hello @Arseni Vasilevski 

Welcome to the community. I am guessing you know how to do until step 4, that is lookup issues based on fix version of the issue of manual trigger. 

So once you have lookupIssues, you create a variable (myvar) then you can assign it all the components found in lookup like below:

{{#lookupIssues}}{{#components}}{{name}}; {{/}}{{/}}

This variable (myvar) is a text, you need to split it and convert to list and do a distinct like below:

{{myvar.split("; ").distinct}}

So, after lookup Action, you can do

• Action - edit comment with value = {{myvar.split("; ").distinct}}

Hope it helps.

No duplicates and works perfectly!

Hi @Arseni Vasilevski 

I got most of the way there - I just haven't found a method to de-duplicate yet. But I did get the components to post into a comment.

I've assumed there's only one Fix Version on the trigger issue.

---

• Trigger: Manual triggert from issue
• Action: Lookup issues
  • JQL - fixVersion = {{triggerissue.fixVersions}}
• Branch: Related Issues
  • Type = Current Issue
    • Branch-Action: Comment on Issue
      • Comment = 
        • {{#lookupIssues}}
          * {{components.name}}
          {{/}}

Did you find a method to de-duplicate by chance?
