Bulk change scheduled issues for Creator/Owner field

Abhilash_Marampelli September 11, 2018

Hi,

 

We are using The scheduler plugin with our JIRA. Recently one of the users left the organization who had setup scheduled issues. They are showing as 'INVALID' with the error message as 'User who created this scheduled issue is no longer active'.
We can fix the issues one by one by changing the Creator. However, considering the volume is there any way we can fix these issues in bulk.

Hello @Abhilash_Marampelli

 

You can make bulk edit, follow this link. But be aware that the field CREATOR of an jira issue can't be changed in the UI, maybe the creator that you refered it is a plugin field.

Thanks for the response @Mohamed Benziane

However I am after the change for scheduled issues. Capture.PNG

The error I am getting is as below.

JQL will not be able to list these scheduled issues for the bulk change.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Go to schedule issues in your project, you will see all schedules tasks.

Click on" fix" on the concerned issue and edit the creator value.

is there any way I can fix multiple issues in one edit, considering the creator values is same for all those issues.

With my previous post you will be able to change the creator then the future issue created by this scheduled task won't have the invalid state

 here how to make multiple edit 

 

You can't make a bulk edit on the creator field.
