Scriptrunner Create Subtask for a task which is created by "Clones an issue, and links"

[Nazimuddin Mohammed]

Created a Task in a different project by using "Clones an issue, and links" with the following Additional issue actions.

import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.util.UserMessageUtil;
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;

def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue).find {it.name == 'Epic Name'}
issue.setCustomFieldValue(cf, 'Cloned Issue Epic Name' + sourceIssue.key + ': ' + sourceIssue.summary)

issue.summary = 'Cloned Issue ' + sourceIssue.key + ': ' + sourceIssue.summary

 The issue is created successfully and also linked with Issue link type "relates to".

Once this new issue is cloned and created, I would three subtasks to be created for the newly created issue by adding some actions to the existing script. 

How can this be achieved?

Hi @Nazimuddin Mohammed,

Could you please take a look at this link, it may help.

You need to put this post-function to the Create transition in the workflow of newly created linked issue.

Unfortunately, that won't be possible in my scenario.

1. Project A ----clones and creates tickets to project B.

The tickets that are created in Project B by above step 1 should have subtask automatically created.

But, there are tickets that are created in Project B manually which does not need to have a subtask. Therefore, subtask should only be created automatically for ticket in project B when the ticket was created by Step 1 mentioned above. Can this be achived somehow?

You can do it indeed.

For example, you may run "Clones an issue, and links" function via run as user (ex: AutoUser) than add condition to "Create subtask" function (if creator is AutoUser). So, sub-task will not be created for other users.

It is also possible run your own groovy script if you are familiar. There are so many examples on the web.
