Insight Automation doesn't work

[Aleksey Dzyapko]

Jira v8.17.0
Insight version is 9.0.7
Insight automation triggers when an insight object (for ex. obj1) is created then run two separate groovy scripts, the first one creates three other insight objects based on previous (obj1 (level 1), obj1 (level 2), obj1 (level 3)), the second one updates linked insight object set in the attributes of obj1.
Separately, both scripts work as expected through Insight Script Console without any errors.
The server log also says that everything works properly.

Here is the clue in your log:

2021-08-24 16:10:00,132 [insight-event-0] | GroovyScriptAction, not in white list, exit, absFilePath: /opt/atlassian/jira-sharedhome/scripts/fillSkillCategory.groovy

At some point, Insight introduced a script white list, during the upgrade, your first script might have been added to the whitelist automatically.

But when you created and linked your second script, you didn't populate the whitelist with the new script. 

Look for the admin menu under add-ons: Insight Whitelist

Thanks, @Peter-Dave Sheehan it works like a charm.

I spent 2 hours looking for this. Thanks!

Each Groovy script has to be whitelisted. To add Groovy scripts to the allowlist:

1. Go to Administration > Manage apps > Assets Allowlist.
2. Select Edit settings.
3. Enter the filename and the full path to the script.
4. 4. Select Save.

i'm trying to understand if i can call from automation for jira (for jira datacenter) an insight object and its property (in particular an email attribute that i need to send from automation for jira an email). has anyone ever faced this need and solved it?
