Get Parent issue of issue- post function

[Dan27]

Hello,

I tried to make a post function, that copy from the parent (Bug-Internal type) of an issue (QVR type) the value of custom field 'Resolution' .. and insert this value into custom field of the issue 'Reason' (Text field)

I didn't success to get the parent at all.. It tell me that I get null.

This is my code, Any ideas how can it works?  ->

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.IssueChangeHolder;
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.*
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue;

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();

def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager()
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
//test
//Issue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("WBL-57142");

//Get QVR 'Reason' field

CustomField Reason = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Reason");

//Get Bug-Internal issue
try {
def issueLink = issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(issue.getId());
//Get key of linked issue="is Bug Of QVR"
def key=issueLink[0].getDestinationObject();
key=key.toString();

//Get Bug linked issue
Issue Bug = issueManager.getIssueObject(key);
log.warn Bug;

//Get resolution value
def ResolutionField = Bug.getResolution().name;
log.warn ResolutionField

//update 'Reason' field of issue
def changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder();
Reason.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(Reason), ResolutionField),changeHolder);

} catch (e) {
log.warn e.message;
}

Hello @Dan27

What is relation between "Bug-Internal type" and "QVR type"

Are they just linked or have task : sub-task relation?

If second, you ll need to use

def parent = issue.getParentObject()

[Dan27]

Hi @Mark Markov ,

They are linking..

[Dan27]

@Mark Markov How can I write the script if they are linking ?

[Mark Markov]

Find an error in your code. getDestinationObject() method returns Issue object, so you dont need to get it later. Try like this

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.IssueChangeHolder;
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.*
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue;

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();


def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager()
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
//test
//Issue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("WBL-57142");

//Get QVR 'Reason' field

CustomField Reason = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Reason");

//Get Bug-Internal issue
try {
    def issueLink = issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(issue.getId());
//Get key of linked issue="is Bug Of QVR"
    def bug =issueLink[0].getDestinationObject();
    //key=key.toString();

//Get Bug linked issue
    //Issue Bug = issueManager.getIssueObject(key);
    log.warn bug;


//Get resolution value
    def ResolutionField = bug.getResolution().name;
    log.warn ResolutionField


//update 'Reason' field of issue
    def changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder();
    Reason.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(Reason), ResolutionField),changeHolder);

} catch (e) {
    log.warn e.message;
}

Thank @Mark Markov ,

It wrote for me this error: 

Cannot invoke method getDestinationObject() on null object

[Mark Markov]

This means that issue doesnt have any outward links.

May be link inward?

try 

def issueLink = issueLinkManager.getInwardLinks(issue.getId());

instead of

def issueLink = issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(issue.getId());

[Dan27]

I tried it already , It is link outward.. does not work..
