Looking for best planning options for Epics with Story Points

[Birgit Strompen]

I have a team and want to implement a handful of themes (epics) by a certain date.  To coordinate with other teams, we plan in "stages". The epics are either roughly estimated (based on historical values) or finely estimated because we have already worked out the associated stories. Estimation we do based on Story Points, which are noted in the Epic as a total. I would now like to craft the Epics in a timeline with several milestones so that they best fill the individual time periods. Is there a good editing option for this in Jira or a plugin or a completely different tool?

Hi Mike,

Thank you for your question.

I can confirm that ScriptRunner for Jira Cloud is different to ScriptRunner Jira Server as Jira Cloud does not provide the Java API which the server version has as Atlassian restrict what functions can be performed on cloud through the Rest API.

This is reason that your Import statement gives an error as this import statement is only valid for the Java API on Jira Server.

More information on the differences between the cloud and server versions can be found in the documentation page located here.

If this answer has solved your issue can you please accept it in order to mark this answer as correct for users who are searching for a similar issue.

Regards,

Kristian

So any script with an import statement cannot work in Cloud version ? 

what a loss of power

Hi George,

I can confirm that you only use imports provided by the standard Java 8 classes as described in the documentation page here and that as mentioned previously you can only interact with Jira Cloud through the Rest API as Atlassian do not provide the same Java API in Jira Cloud that they do in Jira Server.

Regards,

Kristian

Is it possible to bulk delete custom fields using script runner?
