Getting error for getIssueLink method

[Parsa Mounika]

Hi Team,

One of our customer provided the script and asked us to implement that in the listeners. While we are implementing it we are getting error as shown in pic. I am sharing the script also can some one check and help me.

Issue destinationIssue = event.getIssueLink().getDestinationObject()

Issue masterIssue = event.getIssueLink().getSourceObject()

Hi @Parsa Mounika 

I don’t see you having gotten the issue itself first. Normally I’ll expect event.getIssue and after that you can get the link if you want.

This is also what the error you have at the top is saying.

Hi @Ismael Jimoh , I am sharing my script can you help me how to make those changes.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

import com.atlassian.jira.user.util.UserManager

import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.link.IssueLinkCreatedEvent

Issue destinationIssue = event.getIssueLink().getDestinationObject()

Issue masterIssue = event.getIssueLink().getSourceObject()

    def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager()

    def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

   ApplicationUser user = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager().getUserByName("sourcingRoadmapBot");

   CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

   CustomField comCF = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(44401) // Get customfield Commitment

    issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(masterIssue.id).each { link ->

      if (link.getLinkTypeId() == 10161) {

            MutableIssue slaveIssue = link.getDestinationObject() as MutableIssue;

            slaveIssue.setPriority(masterIssue.getPriority());

            slaveIssue.setCustomFieldValue(comCF,masterIssue.getCustomFieldValue(comCF));

            issueManager.updateIssue(user, slaveIssue, EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_UPDATED, false);

      }

   }

Also why do you have the getissuelink before defining the issuelinkmanager.

I will recommend reviewing the code properly before implementing it.

If the goal is to get the issue the event.getIssue() should suffice just fine.

Thanks.

I can’t as I don’t know what the script is meant for or what the intentions behind the script is.

Say what is the master issue or destination issue? All these have no concrete meaning to me as I don’t know what your original goal is here. From looking simply I can guess you want to update an issue’s priority and some custom field value based on the value from the masterissue.

the closest I can help is order your code:

 

importcom.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

import com.atlassian.jira.user.util.UserManager

import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

importcom.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

importcom.atlassian.jira.event.issue.link.IssueLinkCreatedEvent

def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager() 

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

   ApplicationUser user = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager().getUserByName("sourcingRoadmapBot");

   CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

   CustomField comCF = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(44401) // Get customfield Commitment

Issue masterIssue = event.getIssueLink().getSourceObject()// if this is the main issue from the event then event.issue gets you the issue in question. You can replace this with even.getIssue() as well

//Issue destinationIssue = event.getIssueLink().getDestinationObject() not sure this is needed

    issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(masterIssue.id).each { link ->

      if (link.getLinkTypeId() == 10161) {

            MutableIssue slaveIssue = link.getDestinationObject() as MutableIssue;

            slaveIssue.setPriority(masterIssue.getPriority());

            slaveIssue.setCustomFieldValue(comCF,masterIssue.getCustomFieldValue(comCF));

            issueManager.updateIssue(user, slaveIssue, EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_UPDATED, false);

      }

   }

Knowing what you are aiming to achieve will help greatly here.

Sorry I’m working from my phone now and eyeballing the code on the fly. I don’t see the need for the destination issue since you are getting the slaveIssue later.

If master issue is the issue that triggers the event then as mentioned the event.getIssue() is the way to go. Similarly, event.issue works here
