JMWE nunjuck question

[Patrick van der Rijst]

I'm on server currently combining Scriptrunner's issueFunction within a JMWE Post Function to first link and then transition an issue. Now, I'm trying to find a way to do this with Nunjuck.

The first part I first tried to replace with Automation but the second part, is where JMWE is currently trying to do a named transition which occurs more than once so the status the linked issue goes to, may differ and I want to avoid different if/else cases in my Automation and first try to keep using JMWE.

On Server:

Create link between issue in Post Function and matching JQL of type XYZ 

JQL issueFunction in epicsOf("issueFunction in linkedIssuesOf('issuekey = $⁣{issue.id}', 'is related to')")

Second post function:

Transition issue issueFunction in epicsOf("issueFunction in linkedIssuesOf('issuekey = $⁣{issue.id}', 'is related to')") calling a transition name.

The JQL expression part accepts Nunjuck, not Jira expression so I'm either looking for the correct Nunjuck or how to do this in a build your own custom Post Function.

This was my fix:

{% set alleGekoppeldAan = issue | linkedIssues("is gekoppeld aan")  %}
{% set epicKeys = [] %}
{% for gekoppeldIssue in alleGekoppeldAan %}
{% if gekoppeldIssue.fields.parent %}
{% set unused = epicKeys.push(gekoppeldIssue.fields.parent.key) %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% if epicKeys.length > 0 %}
key in ({{epicKeys | join(",")}})
{% endif %}

HI @Patrick van der Rijst 

Welcome to the community.

I have been trying to tackle related issues with JMWE and nunjucks as well.

Mot of the time I did reach out to their support, and they were able to help me. Not in all cases as those functionalities are not available.

You can find their portal here
