How to create issues and its sub-issue "in transaction"?

[Jan Krystof]

Hi,

I need to create valid issue and it's subissue. However, in order to validatea sub-issue I need to provide it's parent ID (I am using

issueService.validateSubTaskCreate

). Problem is, that the parent issues has not been created yet: I want to create parent issues as soon as I know, that validation procedure for sub-issue will succeed. So I want to work within a kind of transaction.

Thanks for any hints!

:)

This is your catch 22 then. You cannot create a sub task if you don't have the parent task.

Timothi, I understand that.

My question actually was, whether I can validate creation of issue "P" with children "C1" and "C2". I have all parameters (summary, issuetype, etc.) needed for creation P, C1 and C2.

Thanks

Nope. Cause C1, C2, ... needs a valid P issue id/key.

OK,
Thanks Timothi!

I will live with that...
