Your code refers to stuff that changed in Jira 4.3, you need to update it with the new API calls to do what you need. I'm assuming you've got a plugin or code for Jira 4.2 or below and are trying to update it?

Thanks for the anser. I am actually trying to create a jira report plugin (for jira5.0) to get the monthly basis report on the selected project in jira.

To create a plugin I have followed the given link (https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Plugin+Tutorial+-+Creating+a+JIRA+Report) and used the code (http://svn.atlassian.com/svn/public/contrib/tutorials/jira-report-plugin/trunk/).

When I gave atlas-run command, I got earlier mentioned error.

pls help me with the report creation.

Regards,

Vimala

That's rather old code I'm afraid - if you look at the pom.xml, you'll see it says "jira version 4.1" near the end, and that's from before Atlassian swapped osuser for crowd. However, that should actually make it compile for 4.1, so I assume you've already changed it to 5.0

You might be better off using example code from one of the open source plugins, or possibly starting with a clean plugin (atlas-create-jira-plugin) and building towards what you need instead of taking a pre-existing block.

Hi Nic,

Could you let me know where can I find the example code of the open source plugins?

Thanks for the answer in advance!!
