Custom field to display parent name and status on tickets

[Kewl Tanooj]

Hi guys, I am new to JIRA and was hoping you would help me out.

I have been using Script Runner to create a custom scripted field which would display the parent issue link/name and its current status as a field when we open one of the child tickets. 

I have tried out and was able to get the parent issue key and name but I am unable to get the status of the same.

Can you let me know how to do that ? If anyone can help we with the script it would be really helpful.

Hello @Kewl Tanooj

And welcome to the community.

Can you provide your script?
To get status you can use

issue.status.name

[Kewl Tanooj]

I think get it now. I was referring to issue.getStatus().getName() in my script which wasn't obviously the right way. Still learning a lot about Scriptrunner/Groovy so have these kindergarten doubts.

Its working now. Thanks for the welcome and the assist Mark !

Hi Kewl!

I know this is an old thread but I have the same question. It would help a lot if you are able to share the script with me.
