How to create dynamic number of subtask

[Etam_DSI_DW_CRM]

Hello

Here my situation : I've got a custom number field (id 17002) who can be empty or with a value (between 1 and a lot, not define)

I want create the same number of substask than the value in the custom field, and no creation if the field is empty

I try with automation, but I don't want to create 1 case for each number (and I don't have a max value)

I try with scriptrunner. I succed to create 1 subtask. But :

- if value is empty, subtask still created

- didn't sucess to create X subtask (X = value in my custom field)

I'm on Jira server

Any help will be welcome

Lot of thanks

With Scriptrunner, all you need to do is add an "if" into your code - "if number is not 0/empty, then create one or more subtasks".  Or if you're creating one per value, handle a zero as part of the loop ( "for each X, create a subtask" - when X is zero, there's no X to create for)

Hello again

I try to do this, but without success

Here the code I wrote

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.config.SubTaskManager

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_17002")
def cFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cField)

if (cFieldValue != null){
return true

//create new issue as sub task
def newSubtask = issueFactory.getIssue();
newSubtask.summary = "truc"+i;
newSubtask.setIssueTypeId("12801"); // 12801 is the ID of the subtask I want create
newSubtask = issueManager.createIssueObject(user, newSubtask)
}
else {
return false}

No subtask are created

For information, I've selected the post function "Create a sub-task [ScriptRunner]" in my workflow

Thank for your help

Hello

Thank for your reply

Here what I wrote, but without success (any subtask are created)

For information, I've selected the Create a sub-task [ScriptRunner] postfunction

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.config.SubTaskManager

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_17002")
def cFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cField)

if (cFieldValue != null){
//create new issue as sub task
def newSubtask = issueFactory.getIssue();
newSubtask.summary = "truc"+i;
newSubtask.setIssueTypeId("12801"); // 12801 is the ID of the subtask I want create
newSubtask = issueManager.createIssueObject(user, newSubtask);
}
else {
return false}

Before I will create a dynamic number of subtask, how create 1 task depending of the value of a custom field (17002 into my case) ? 

Thank for your help

Hello

Thank for your answer, but I will need more help

I've selected the Create a sub-task [ScriptRunner] post function on my workflow

Here the code I wrote

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.config.SubTaskManager

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_17002")
def cFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cField)

if (cFieldValue != null){
//create new issue as sub task
def newSubtask = issueFactory.getIssue();
newSubtask.summary = "truc"+i;
newSubtask.setIssueTypeId("12801"); // 12801 is the ID of the subtask I want create
newSubtask = issueManager.createIssueObject(user, newSubtask);
}
else {
return false}

 But when I made the transition, any subtask are created (even if my custom field is not empty or null)

How can I create a subtask with this condition ?

And, after, how create X substack depending of this condition ?
