Trying to set up an automation in which a subtask is cloned and added as a task to another board

[Jordan Wolman]

I have created an automation that is manually triggered in which a subtask is cloned, added to a different proejct as a task, and then linked to the trigger issue (subtask). When I run this rule I get a message that the issue could not be cloned and moved. Any idea how to get this to work?

This code is really heavy handed to update the fixversion field. I looked up and found Issue.setFixVersions([V]); approach. Is this deprecated? 

Its a lot cleaner than the above answer but does not seem to work.

It's not saved your way.

Currently I would suggest to use IssueService.update(), a minimal version would be like this:

issueService = ComponentAccessor.issueService
def iip = issueService.newIssueInputParameters()
iip.setFixVersionIds(version.id)
def valRes = issueService.validateUpdate(user, issue.id, iip)
if (valRes.isValid()) {
    issueService.update(user, valRes)
}

Of course this is without error handling etc.

Best regards,

Thank you Henning! I'll give it a shot.
