Get the Issue Key for an Issue in a Jira Behavior

[Daniel H_ Fisher]

1. I am writing a server-side script in Behaviors for one of my custom fields.

2. The script sends an email to a user

3. The script works in all ways except:

While all my variables get injected into the body of the email, the issue key shows as "null".

How do I get Jira to incorporate the issue key into a variable that I can use in my script.

getIssue.key() doesn't work

getfieldbyname("key") doesn't work

def curKey = getFieldByName("Key")

def issue = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject("curKey")

Doesn't work

How can I load an issue's key into a variable?

You can use underlyingissue this gives you the the current issue object and it's properties.

underlyingIssue.key

Would it be possible for you to provide a generic example of this? Which import do I need? What type of variable should I declare? A working example would be extremely helpful.

For example, I've tried using your suggeston as follows, without success:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

IssueManager im = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

MutableIssue issue = im.getIssueObject(underlyingIssue.key)

return issue
