How to Get Current Issue Key in Web Item Provider

[jon_d]

I'm trying to build a web item provider that adds a mailto link that includes a link to the current issue.  However I can't seem to access the issue with just "issue" or "event.getIssue()".

Is there a way to get the current issue as an object in the web item provider? Thanks!

Hi @jon_d ,

welcome to the Atlassian community!

In order to retrieve the URL of your ticket based on an event you should use the following portion of code:

String baseUrl = ComponentAccessor.getApplicationProperties().getString(APKeys.JIRA_BASEURL);
String issueKey = event.getIssue().getKey();
String issueURL = baseUrl+"/browse/"+issueKey;

Hope this helps,

Fabio

'event' doesn't seem to be available from the scriptrunner web item fragment scripts.

please let me know what you are trying to do. A webitem is not related to an issue context.

I want a webitem on the action menu for an issue that contains a mailto link with a body parameter that includes a link to the current issue.  But I can't get the webitem to know what the current issue is.

Hopefully that clears it up, thanks.
