How to get "is child of" issue type

[Andrii Striletskyi]

Hi team. How to get "is child of" linked issue? I've tried to do It , but can't get this issue. My Code:

for (link in issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(issue.getId())) {
log.error(link.getIssueLinkType().getName())
if (link.getIssueLinkType().getName() == "is child of") {
log.error("TEST")
etIssue = link.getDestinationObject()
if (etIssue.getResolutionObject() == null) {
result = true
}
else {
result = false
}
}
}

Hello @Andrii Striletskyi 

You are comparing the description of linkType (is child of) instead of the name. To find the name of the issue link go to the URL

<-Your-Jira-Base-URL>/secure/admin/ViewLinkTypes!default.jspa

Once you visit the above URL you can see the actual link name.

Yes , I known about this. I've set "Child" (is child of as inwards and outwards links) , but still can't get this issue (

Can you share the screenshot of the issue links page in your jira instance and your exact code.

Code:

for (link in issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(issue.getId())) {
log.error(link.getIssueLinkType().getName())
if (link.getIssueLinkType().getName() == "Child") {
log.error("TEST")
etIssue = link.getDestinationObject()
if (etIssue.getResolutionObject() == null) {
result = true
}
else {
result = false
}
}
}

What do you get for the log

log.error(link.getIssueLinkType().getName())

Nothing , empty string. Only Clones issues (there are 2 types - Cloners and is child of)

Hello @Andrii Striletskyi 

In your code instead of 

issueLinkManager.getOutwardLink()

Use the below method

It's to get all links irrespective of outward or inward. And then you add logging inside it

log.info()
