Move Insight Object from one Object Type to another in post function

Move Insight Object from one Object Type to another in post function

Hello,

I'm trying to move an Insight object from one object type to another. Of course, if you are using the interface, this is no problem. But we want to move an object in a post function. The background of this is that we have a JIRA process that handles Hardware exchanges. At a certain status the user is asked, if the "old" Hardware should be scraped or put back in the pool for further usage.

If the user chooses "Scrape" the Hardware will be moved to the object type "Deprecated Hardware". With this, we can still access the old hardware in the Insight Backend, but remove the object from being chosen by a user during a "New User" Workflow.

I'm using the code below, and it does actually move the object (I'm using JMWE Groovy Script), but unfortunately without any values, but I can't figure out, where the problem in my code is. Help is much appreciated.

Thanks a lot, Michael

Hello everyone on the forum, first of all, I want to thank you for the support and collaboration in this community; as a token of appreciation, I want to contribute my grain of sand by sharing with you this script (which was achieved thanks to the contributions from this and other threads). This script moves any object from one object type to another, mapping the attributes according to the structure of the destination object type.

Hi Guys,

I tried this script with automation, but it do not work. Do you have any idea what may wrong with it?

@attilasalanki1983old topic, but did you resolve your problem? Was your problem with missing attributes?

I am using quite same logic and object gets moved, but all the attributes are empty.

I thought I'd not do a new topic, but rather update this old one as the problem is still the same and there are some few topics here as well, but they all end up with the same result - no attributes are being updated.

As this does not let me to submit my code highlihted I've used Pastebin. See my reply with working example.

The idea is the same - when objectType "Domains" attribute "STATUS" value gets changed to "NOT USED" I would like to move this Insight object to a child objectType ("Domains not used"). Child objectType holds the same attributes and in the same order as parent. Schema is the same.

I am going to use automation which is simplifed like this: when object is updated and IQL (insert your necessary condition here) execute (this) groovy script.

I have done some extra checks to script, but this is not definitely necessary, because the idea is the same as previously posted here.

@Peter-Dave Sheehanmention here, as you have done the same in another topic: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Software-questions/Moving-Insight-objects-via-Groovy-fails/qaq-p/1897498

When I'm doing mapping manually like in this quoted thread (see link before) I will get all attributes in the KEY value.

When I'm doing mapping automatically (with each), all attributes are "lost", but the object gets moved.

I have tried "sleep", to wait for object to move, it does not change the result.

I have tried to change the order (attribute map before and actually move later), also the result is the same.

I'm going to post some log.info output here:

One question before I dig into it. .. when you say "child objecttype" are you leveraging the attribute inheritance (this means that the attribute id is the same for the parent and the child) or do the child and parent have the same attribute names but with different ids?

The first error I see is here:

MoveAttributeMapping.create(item, fromAtts[index]);

You have your 2 arguments reversed. Is't from then to.

But also, how can you be certain your 2 lists of attributes will be in the same sequence?

And are you 100% sure they are of the same type?

Maybe try something like this:

toAtts?.each { toAttribute ->
    def fromAttribute = fromAtts.find{it.name == toAttribute.name && it.type == toAttribute.type}
    if(!fromAttribute) {
        log.warn "Nothing to map to $toAttribute.name"
        return
    } 
    MoveAttributeMapping attMap = MoveAttributeMapping.create(fromAttribute, toAttribute);
    
    log.info "Adding mapping of $fromAttribute.name from $fromAttribute.id to $toAttribute.id"
    moveMap.map(fromAttribute.id, attMap);
}

Also, don't create a mutable of your object. That's only for editing attributes.

Thank you @Peter-Dave Sheehan, such a rookie mistake for mapping attributes.

For my case right now this object is "tree" child

- CMDB
  -- Infra
    --- Domain names
      ---- domains not used

And they always use the same attribute names and types in the same order. IDs of course are different.

Regarding to not/being mutable, if it's not mutable, I will get this error:

Could not update object attribute due to error: No signature of method: com.riadalabs.jira.plugins.insight.channel.external.api.facade.impl.ObjectFacadeImpl.storeObjectBean() is applicable for argument types: (com.riadalabs.jira.plugins.insight.services.model.ObjectBean) values: [domain.tld (KAS-132375)]

Working as expected, I am going to post a working example in some time.

You don't need to store the object (objectFacade.storeObjectBean(object)).

Remove that line and you won't need to make it mutable.

@Peter-Dave SheehanI've replaced my attribute mapping with your suggestion. The problem is that now when I'm moving within two objectTypeId's, which are the same attributes (order, name and type), the object gets moved.

But when I'm moving within two quite different objectTypeId's, then return is "true", so no errors, but the object is not being moved actually.

The idea should be that when a mapping is found, then this attribute is moved, others should be discarded.

Also moveObject seems OK to me as well.

Sorry, I don't have a lot more to add. I've only ever really moved within 2 objects that largely share the same attributes.

I'm not sure how else to discard an attribute other than not including it in the mapping.

Based on the MoveAttributeMapping documentation I can see that there is a possibility of creating a mapping using From only, which sets the "ShouldMap" to false.

You could try to reverse the logic (process all the "fromAtts" and find a matching "toAtt" instead of processing all the "toAtts" and finding a matching "fromAtt") and add a no-map mapping.

fromAtts?.each { fromAttribute ->
    def toAttribute = toAtts.find{it.name == fromAttribute.name && it.type == fromAttribute.type}
    MoveAttributeMapping attMap
    if(!toAttribute) {
        log.warn "Nothing to map to $fromAttribute.name"
        attMap = MoveAttributeMapping.create(fromAttribute)
    } else {
        attMap = MoveAttributeMapping.create(fromAttribute, toAttribute);
    }

    log.info "Adding mapping of $fromAttribute.name from $fromAttribute.id to ${toAttribute?.id}"
    moveMap.map(fromAttribute.id, attMap);
}

Actually I guess it's the GUI behaviour too, that you find "fromAttributes" and map them to "toAttributes".

And this worked like a charm! Thank you for your support and I believe whoever finds this topic, they will get it done as well. :)

Hi Michael.

You have to map every attribute from the source to the destination - and the type must match between source and target attributes...

The best way to understand the Move Object is to follow the Bulk-Move UI - the same should be done in your script.

Missing attributes won't be moved if not specified.

Kind regards,

Hi @Yinon Negev ,

I faced pretty the same challenge @[deleted] was dealing with. Unfortunately, I'm not sure I did follow your hint exactly the way you were describing. Let me describe the issue, what is it current status and ask you for piece of code if possible :)

We are storing important kind of data in CRC object schema.
Because of the importance, we don't want anyone to operate manually.
Operations like new object creation or update are fully automated. Unfortunately, objects "removal" has to be done manually. We'd like to automate it.

There are 3 main object types:

Register Objects
Attribute Objects
Removed Objects
Attribute Objects are only reference objects.
Register Objects are our main objects. Once object is removed from Register Objects, it is moved to Removed Objects.
Register Objects and Removed Objects hierarchy is the same. The difference is only in child type names that are prefixed with "Removed" in Removed Objects. Attribute list, their types and type values are the same, so manual action is just few clicks.

Here is one of my try, mainly based on this post.
Object is moved but without any attribute. It's searchable by it's label, but none attribute displayed and none attribute is saved when object edited manually.

I am able to move the object ID when i use the script in the insight script console below provided in this thread.

However, when i saved the script as a file and tried to initiate a post function - i m unable to get the result. Can anyone help me with this code? I m trying to load the object from customfield_ID and move that object from sourcetypeID to desinationtypeID to another where both are childobjecttypes of same parentobjecttype

Thanks

Have you added this script to allowed list?

Administration -> Manage apps -> Insight Whitelist

JIRAURL/secure/admin/InsightPluginWhiteList.jspa

Comment

Yes. I have whitelisted it.

In the Insight post function, there is an option to test with a issue key. The code executes but without a desired result.

In the Insight script console, I am able to get TRUE/ false result in the result tab and comment in the log tab

Try my code (above) and adapt it. It works as post-function 100%! Nevertheless, I moved it with the same logic as a REST Endpoint with ScriptRunner and have it in the production environment.

The reason I moved to REST Endpoint was precisely that... as post-function, from time to time it stopped working. Something related to the browser or cache in the server... or who knows why.

Since I moved the script to REST ... NO failures with tons of objects.

You need to keep in mind that during the mapping process, you must adjust the object's attributes to match the structure of the destination object type; otherwise, it will fail.

With regards to attributed mapping , in one of my use case, both the object types are child of the same parent as I has mentioned earlier, so it's ensured by default I think

Thanks a lot for REST code. I will keep the credits 🙂

If you encounter any difficulties, just let me know. I walked the same challenging path some time back and know how frustrating it can be. It works 100%.

This is the logic for the automation done by a functional user who has Jira Administrator rights.

In this example, decommissioned Hosts are moved to another branch called "Removed Hosts".
