Automatically Update the labels of sub tasks only if the Story's label is SEO_EMEA or MA_EMEA

[sai_kiran]

Hello all,

I would like to request a macro where on the labels are supposed to get updated automatically depending on the labels present on the Story task.

I want the labels to be updated only if the Story has SEO_EMEA or MA_EMEA as one of its label.

Hello @sai_kiran

Do you have Script Runner plugin installed in your Jira instance ?

Hello @sai_kiran 

Here is a script you should add as a Listener of type Custom listener with events of type "Issue Updated":

// Listener to synchronise certains to label of certains
// issues type to it's subtasks
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.label.LabelManager

def labelMgr = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(LabelManager)
def currentUser = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.loggedInUser

// List of label to synchronise
def labelsToCopy = ["SEO_EMEA", "MA_EMEA"]

// List of issue type that we apply synchronisation
def issueType = ["Bug", "Story"]

//Filter issue type
if (issueType.any{it == event?.issue.issueType.name})
{
    // Get changes of labels
    def labelsChange = event?.getChangeLog()?.getRelated("ChildChangeItem")?.findAll {it.field == "labels"}


    if (labelsChange)
    {
        //get issue
        def issue = event.issue

        // Get previous labels
        def previousLabels = Arrays.asList(((String)labelsChange.oldstring[0]).split())

        // Get new labels
        def newLabels = Arrays.asList(((String)labelsChange.newstring[0]).split())

        // Filter previous labels
        def previousLabelsToVerify = labelsToCopy.intersect(previousLabels)

        // Filter new labels
        def newLabelsToVerify = labelsToCopy.intersect(newLabels)

        // Compute labels to delete
        def labelsToDelete = previousLabelsToVerify - newLabelsToVerify

        // Compute labels to add
        def labelsToAdd = newLabelsToVerify - previousLabelsToVerify

        //get subtasks
        def subtasks = issue.subTaskObjects

        subtasks.each { subtask ->
            // get current label of the subtask
            def subtaskLabels = labelMgr.getLabels(subtask.id).collect{it.label}
            // Delete labels
            subtaskLabels -= labelsToDelete
            // Add labels
            subtaskLabels += labelsToAdd
            // Change labels of subtask
            labelMgr.setLabels(currentUser, subtask.id, subtaskLabels.toSet(), false, true)
        }
    }
}

Just configure the two first array:

• labelsToCopy is is an array of all Labels you want to synchronyse with subtasks
• issueType is an array of the different issueType that need to be synchronise

If you need all issueType this can be easyly modified (delete first if)

If you need a filter on subtasks issueType create a filter on the subtasks collection.
