Powerscript for Jira - Creating a project script (event)

[Dennis Henrik Kristensen]

Hi,

My organisation needs every new project to "include" a few standard issues. I was looking for creating these via scripts. 

For this i have in PowerScript created a listener for the Project Created event and made a script to create issues on this script. 

This works fine when a project is created manually via Jira. 
The problem is that when creating a project via a script run from SIL gadget runner it does not. I do not know if the event is not raised/ catched? As i can read in the Logs the event is not raised as it is by doing it manually.

Any ideas is very appreciated.

We specifically prevent events from such routines. Why create a script in which you create a project, and in the listener you add code to create more issues? The normal approach would be to create the project and create the issues in the same script....

We could improve those routines to allow the event to be triggered, if you really need it.

Best Regards,

Radu

Hi Radu,

Thanks for your reply. 

I have created a way for this to work via 2 function scripts and 1 caller script with parameters. So now the project and issues "are created in the same script".

Hello,

Do you create a project with the admCreateProject routine?

Yes that the routine i use. 
admCreateProject(pkey, pname, description, lead, url, categoryName, defaultIsUnassigned, avatarId, projectTypeKey)
