Using "lastComment" in listener "Send Custom Mail"

[Deleted user]

Hi everyone

I recently updated to ScriptRunner 4.3.9 and since then you can use some advanced scripting in the "condition and configuration" section of the listener "Send Custom Mail".

However, when I try to use "lastComment" like i usually did in my mail template, it states the variable is undeclared.

I also tried issue.lastComment, $issue.lastComment etc. No luck though.

Can somene help here?

Best Regards

Hi Marius,

I have attached a little script below which I use to get the last comment in a scripted field. You should be able to get the last comment in the same sort of way inside of your listener.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def comments = ComponentAccessor.getCommentManager()?.getComments(issue)

if (comments) {
    return comments.last()?.body
}

I hope this helps.

Thanks

Kristian

Hey Kristian,

Thanks for that script

However, it seems like this would just return the newest comment ever made on that issue. I would like to only get the comment which was made during that transition if any has been made at all.

I use this listener for when an issue gets closed and I would like to extract the described resolution out of transition that triggered the listener.

Best Regards

Hi Marius,

I will create a bug for this (SRJIRA-2066), you are right the comment variables are not bound and ready-to-use at the additional configuration field. 

You can use them though in the email template as before , for example

Last Comment: ${lastComment}
Most recent comment: ${mostRecentComment}
