Hi, community!
Tell me how can I implement pre-filling fields with values from the epic when creating a “task in the epic”?
As I understand it, the best solution would be "Behavior"? Or maybe there are some ready-made solutions?
Any help is important. Thank you!
Best regards, Alex!
i.e. how the process occurs On your “task in epic” creation screen, you should add a “Link to epic” field, in which you set your task epic, from which the fields on this screen will then be pulled up.
Solution . My Code for Behavior :
in frame "field"
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
def setFieldValueIfNotNull(String fieldName, Object value) {
if (value!= null) {
def customField = getFieldByName(fieldName)
if (customField!= null) {
customField.setFormValue(value)
} else {
log.warn("$fieldName not found")
}
} else {
log.warn("$fieldName not set or value empty")
}
}
def cf_link_on_epic_value = getFieldByName('Link on epic').value
if (cf_link_on_epic_value!= null) {
String epic_value = cf_link_on_epic_value
def parts = epic_value.split(':')
def epicKey = parts[1].trim()
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def epicIssue = issueManager.getIssueObject(epicKey)
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
//Next , your cf fields
/
// CF - "Target start"
def epic_TS = epicIssue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Target start"))
setFieldValueIfNotNull('Target start', epic_TS!= null? formatDate(epic_TS) : null)
// CF - "Target end"
def epic_TE = epicIssue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Target end"))
setFieldValueIfNotNull('Target end', epic_TE!= null? formatDate(epic_TE) : null)
} else {
log.warn("link on epic not set or value empty")
}
///////////////////////////////// !add this part ,if only your cffield datetime, else - delete this
// Function for formatted date
def formatDate(Date date) {
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yy")
return sdf.format(date)
}
Hi Alex,
Behaviours is the only one I know of that can do something like this. Many of the Marketplace vendors solutions are around forms, so not sure if they can/do connect to Jira Software projects.

@Alex, there is not a great out of the box solution for this. If you have custom fields which only apply to epics, you could use default values, but that is likely a limited use case.
You'll need to install and configure a plugin. ScriptRunner is one option, but there are numerous other template plugins out there which could also potentially solve your issue. I ran a search in the marketplace and found several potential options.
