How to get the second last comment of a child issue

[vincenzo.spatafora]

Dear ALL,

would you know which is the syntax to get the second-last comment of a child issue?

I have tried the followings out but they haven't worked:

{{issue.subtasks.comments.getFromEnd(1).body}}

{{issue.subtasks.comments getFromEnd(1).body}}

Thanks in advance, Vincenzo.

Hi @vincenzo.spatafora 

As you know, there may be multiple child issues, and that's why .subtasks returns a list of issues. Therefore, you have to use get(0) if you are sure that there is at least one subtask.

{{issue.subtasks.get(0).comments.getFromEnd(1).body}}

If you have multiple subtasks and want to get the second-last comment from each, you can loop through them:

{{#issue.subtasks}} 
   {{comments.getFromEnd(1).body}} 
{{/}}

or add a lookup issues and try same approach there for each issue.

I hope that helps
