Getting components from epic links to Issue which is created under epic link

Stanislav Caja

Hello everyone,

I am really stuck here with problem of setting a value to compoments. Description of what I am doing and what I would like to get.

1. We have some EPIC links which have set components, labels etc.

2. When we create Issue which is linked to some epic we would like to have a newly created Issue with same information in components. Instead of chosing it manually.

so what we did, was we created a post function which looks like this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue;
import groovy.transform.Field;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.log4j.Level;
def log = Logger.getLogger("com.acme.CreateSubtask");
log.setLevel(Level.DEBUG);

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
CustomField epicLink = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Epic Link');

Issue epic = (Issue)issue.getCustomFieldValue(epicLink);

if(epic)
{

issue.setComponent(epic.getComponents());

}

after debugging everything, it works. "log.debug issue.getComponents();" will show that all components was set by "issue.setComponent(epic.getComponents());" but on the site of issue. Value in field "component/s" is "none"

Can you please help me with this? I tried "issue.stored" or sth to update it, but nothing worked.

Hi Stanislav,

I suppose you should create new IssueInputParameters using IssueService, then invoke setComponentIds(yourComponentIds), then issueService.validateUpdate() and then issueService.update().

Isn't there a different way? I like the way that you add some post function script that should evaluate within the creating issue.

Aleksandr Zuevich_6f4k0z

No, it's the same way, just implement the logic described above instead of issue.setComponent(epic.getComponents()). Because in your case you just change the issue object without real updating the issue.

Could you please write it down for me? I am having trouble with it, can't really see how to declare it, eventhough I am looking to Jira docs about it.

I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
