Is it possible to auto create project using shared configuration in JIRA upon a certain transition

Shivani Chauhan August 27, 2018

Hi All,

I have the requirement to trigger  auto creation of a project Upon transition of issue from  Fulfillment status to Closure.

 

I will need to automate the below steps : 

  1. Create project using Shared Configuration 
  2. Associate a Profield "Project" scheme
  3. Fill up Profields in the project
  4. Add the reporter of the issue as the project admin
  5. Copy the boards, filter and change owner of the filter to the project admin
  6. Create predefined issues in the projects

Could you please help to advise if this is feasible and how to achieve this?

 

Thank you

Hello,

You could use the Project Configurator plugin. You could create a snapshot of a project and then create it, when you need. Project Configurator has Java Api, which you can use.

You could write your own plugin to automate atleast some of these steps. Check out the atlassian SDK.

Please rethink your use case in  the meanwhile. Please consider the effect of too many projects on your instance size.

If you really need this sort of automation, it is time to hire dedicated adminstrator(s) and avoid the automation all together.
