Deleting Comments for Role Level

Question

Question, because I'm stuck... The log shows the I am searching for but the comment does not delete-- import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue import com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.Comment import com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.CommentManager import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRole import org.apache.log4j.Logger def log = Logger.getLogger("com.acme.workflows") IssueManager issueManager = ComponentAccessor.issueManager CommentManager commentManager = ComponentAccessor.commentManager def issueKeys = [,] issueKeys.each {issueKey -> MutableIssue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject(issueKey) List comments = commentManager.getComments(issue) comments.each {comment -> log.warn(comment.getRoleLevel()) if (comment.getRoleLevel() == ) {commentManager.delete(comment) } } } Anyone know why? I can manually delete each comment, but there are thousands of tickets. Any guidance is appreciated.

Hi @Don Schier There can be several reasons for this. But from the first look below if statement seems problematic: if (comment.getRoleLevel() == ) comment.getRoleLevel returns an instance of ProjectRole class, so you can't do such equality. Instead, you should be checking as below if (null != comment.getRoleLevel() && .equals(comment.getRoleLevel().getName())) I also added a null check as it would be null if the comment is public. I hope I was clear Cheers Tuncay
