Jira Plugin Module - Use dialog to get input from user

[Steve Kamens]

I'm trying to create a plugin that adds a menu item which will launch a dialog to get input from the user, which will then be acted on. 

Does anyone have pointers to an example or documentation for creating and launching such a custom dialog?

Thanks.

Hi Steve,

If you're familiar with Atlassian SDK, you might know AUI and I would recommend Dialog2 obviously (https://docs.atlassian.com/aui/7.9.9/docs/dialog2.html).

If you're not, then I would advise some reading on developer.atlassian.com starting with:

https://developer.atlassian.com/server/framework/atlassian-sdk/create-a-helloworld-plugin-project/

This will give you an idea on how to leverage many technologies (Atlassian SDK, AMPS...).

Best luck!
